Hi,

does the crash happen reproducible in the big file?
If yes, would you mind sharing that file with just me?

I have Emacs crash occasionally with org-indent-mode as well, I think
this is an Emacs bug, the features with line-prefix are still new.
But if there is a reproducible case, we could at least make a good
backtrace including the C code and a core dump, maybe some Emacs
developer could do something with it.

Please also test if the crashes disappear when you no longer
use org-indent-mode.
