I used to work for a router/switch manufacturer and we'd get reports of various scanners freezing or resetting when they were either scanned or were transporting a scan. Reproducing these issues was sometimes difficult because you had to have the right set of ports hit in a certain time. In your case, are you performing scans of the same exact target ports with both NMAP and Nessus?
