It's the thing that people most often whine about with SW. I don't think it crashes more often than any other program, but when you are in your own world trying to design something it can be annoying.

Edit: I feel it's entirely fair to compare Freecad to Solidworks, Inventor, Fusion360, Autocad, etc. It's a cad program. I'm comparing it to other cad programs. To say that's not a fair comparison is kind of a condemnation of freecad.
