My emacs has been experiencing leaks and crashes very often. Both at
home and at work. This is very annoying. Can hear the fan, suddenly
"noising"-up or the keys not responding.... and oh-oh, that... here we
go again, feeling comes back.

If it is easy to provide instructions/recommendations on how to run
Emacs for producing a usefull trace report, I will be happy to do so.
Even to recompile as needed.
