 One of my nodes crashed today with segfault in libcryto.so. Unfortunately
 I cannot provide much information.

 kern.log:

 Nov  6 12:52:02 437673 kernel: [6711002.730880] tor[30866]: segfault at
 7fc386b85000 ip 00007fc36ba94ad0 sp 00007fffa9d671d0 error 4 in
 libcrypto.so.1.0.0[7fc36ba29000+19f000]

 During the hours before the crash I see many messages like

 Nov 06 12:51:46.000 [warn] Your computer is too slow to handle this many
 circuit creation requests! Please consider using the
 MaxAdvertisedBandwidth config option or choosing a more restricted exit
 policy. [58559 similar message(s) suppressed in last 60 seconds]

 The number of similar suppressed messages increased over the last hours
 before the crash.

 I updated tor to the last alpha version.
