I just remembered that the second system that seems more stable is running some flavor of OS 10.10 so perhaps that has something to do with it.

We just upgraded two stations at work to 8.5.1 Mac OS 10.9 MacPro 12 core 3.33GHz upgraded towers from mid 2012. One has a GTX-680 and works faster with Resolve on transcodes because of the card. We have been transcoding Panny True 4K Vlog media of hour long clips to DNX36 for offline. It has been crashy but the other system we upgraded on the same type of computer was more stable doing the same thing. The second system has a ATI Radeon HD 5770 GPU. Don't know why one is more stable than the other but we literally did this yesterday and were transcoding over night.

I'm having stability issues with 8.5.1 in a few of my Mac installations. Historically, I tend to be out on the 'bleeding edge' with testing, installing competing applications, 3rd party i/o, etc., but for some reason it's growing tiresome in this case.
8.5.1 seems a little more stable than 8.5.
If you are an 8.5.x Mac Pro (tower) user that has a very stable, un-crashy installation(s), I'd love to hear about what graphics cards, drivers, operating system, amount of memory, and i/o devices, etc. you're working with - not to mention the kind of work you do - so I can try some new configurations.
I'm a long-term media composer user and die-hard Avid fan & critic - so this should not be considered Avid-bashing, but, rather, seeking information to help with my particular circumstance.
Discuss!
