Sounds more like a code issue to me. You are so quick to blame the
JVM. Have you tried Profiling your application?

See http://www.geocities.com/herong_yang/jvm/stack.html

ALthough JVMs have improved since 2002, I would venture to guess these
 simple programs are still effective at crashing a JVM.

Aside - Worth a shot, but wrap your code with a try/catch and instead
of catching Exception, catch Throwable.
