Crashes in `free` usually mean there's heap corruption. And with heap 
corruptions, the stack-trace of the crash often has nothing to do with the 
actual bug. The most likely reasons for heap corruptions are out-of-bounds 
writes and use of dangling pointers. Daniel's suggestion to use valgrind/ASAN 
is a good one - those tools should help you find the cause. Count yourself 
lucky that you can repro the problem by just running the program for 5-10 
minutes šŸ˜‰
