I was trying to split a 12 megabyte file into smaller parts.  I marked
9.5 megabytes of it, killed the region, used find-file to find a new
file, yanked from the kill ring into the new buffer, saved the buffer
and then tried to switch to the old 12 megabyte (now 2.5 megabyte)
buffer.  Around this time, Emacs stopped responding.  The PC was
swapping, which is unusual.  I waited for a while, but it turned out
that Emacs had crashed.  Here's the dump:

Did you run any selection grabbing application, such as xclipboard at
the time?
