Are you using IAX? There are some problems causing crashes for us related to laggyness on IAX channels with 1.8 versions. 

There are a bunch of problems with IAX related to https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=17521

Hello Thorsten,

the system has 4 GB RAM and about 2,5 GB free so swap space is not used
or exhausted.
Maybe the high load is not cause of this crashes but it's the only thing
the crashes can be reproduced with.


Thank you!
