Does it seem unlikely that a problem related to EMF would only affect one software process on one computer?It might or might not. Depends how strong the EMF is to the one computer it's crashing on; what's insulating the said computer, etc. Remember the Inverse Square Law. However, it does sound rather far-fetched without knowing more details. Of course, if your Helix server is sitting in the same room as one of the Large Hadron Collider's superconducting magnets at CERN, then yes! ;-)
The server computer has been moved to two different physical locations within the facility and there seems to be no change in the crashiness. I think I'm about ready to rule out EMF as a possible cause. Thanks for the other suggestions!
