There is a reddit thread on the topic If I see this one more time today I may loose it:

On that thread there are a number of mentions that the VS crash problems are caused by 3rd party components, but the reality is that VisualStudio architecture makes it really easy to crash it.
Note: I always try to limit the amount of dependencies that I add/use on a project, but look at the sheer amount of references that the O2 Platform's VisualStudio extension needs!
