[Bug 2032577] Re: xz crashed with SIGSEGV in lzma_lzma_optimum_normal

[Mike]

Interesting thought.

After the switch to Wayland all has been well so far. I will update if
this changes, but if the issue is indeed RAM and temps related, then
there is another factor to consider, it is "winter" now, ambient
temperature is between 19-21 degrees vs. 23-25 for the summer (when I
reported the issue). I've installed psensor to monitor temps as well.
