Sugar occasionally restarts (a second or two of Linux terminal stuff and everythings initiallised)
Random, but always Journal related. eg quitting an Activity, changing from details to journal view. Maybe once an hour, significantly more often than 373pyg

Seen this a few times in os15.img on an XO-1, no logs I could find. Sugar just folds up and then restarts, assumed it was memory related, though I only usually do my test runs with just one or two activities open at a time. I'm fairly sure it happens as I'm switching between activities, Journal may well be one of them... I'll try and keep an eye open for the Journal being one of them I'm switching into/out of.

I doubt its run out of memory, not a high load on the system. Would be good if the smiley face system load monitor in the frame was included in the build. (Would be handy if Gnome was in the build too). Not necessarily journal related, but as you describe, the crash is never within the Activity itself but relates to a change of focus.
