Yes, I've had one such crash.

The machine has 4GB of RAM and initially I set it up with vm.kmem_size 
and vm.kmem_size_max set to 1024M. It's my home fileserver and I'm the 
only regular user. After booting the box I had tested the transfer speed 
back and forth over the net and after that not really used it any more 
that day. The next day I discovered that it had crashed sometime during 
the night. I've since changed the two tuneables above to 1536M and I've 
not had any crashes since. I also tried with 2048M but that only 
resulted in a crash upon boot.

Kind regards
