Apple does provide older versions of macOS that you can download and run in 
something like vmWare or Parallels if you want to try running Xcode 8 - it 
would be interesting to see what happens there. Looks like Xcode 8 will run on 
Sierra which you may be able to get via this link: 
https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/macos-sierra/id1127487414?mt=12

AppKit and other libraries do often behave slightly differently based on the 
version they are built and run against, to maintain compatibility. So it’s 
possible that a build from Xcode 8 would hit slightly different code paths in 
the frameworks than Xcode 9 or 10.

I’m much more fluent in UIKit than AppKit but I’d be surprised if this was the 
case - would make Core Data faults, one of the best features for dealing with 
large data sets, basically worthless when used with NSTableView.

That said, you could try profiling this in Instruments to see what it’s doing 
in that period of time right before it crashes when it’s burning CPU.
