Caveat, I'm in a hurry and haven't looked at your code.
But when things run fine for a long time then crash my
first instinct is to think "memory leak".

You don't specify OS but if it is *nix like then it
probably has vmstat so try running it with, say, a 1 minute
delay and log the output to a file. Then see if the memory
is being consumed.

Or use top or ps whatever other memory monitor you have.

Just a thought.
