So maybe you can inspect the source on page 34? Otherwise, if the document uses 
\input or \include, then I would recommend simply starting with a minimal 
source and then to slowly add content until you obtain the crash. Then at least 
you know which content causes the crash, and we may be able to investigate 
further.

Cheers,
Wilfred

I don't know whether this counts as large, but you can use

tobias-schoel.de/nibelungen.zip

which is public domain.

Thanks for your replies to all.

I thought of anonymizing the text, but Google returned nor result.

I'm afraid I cannot code, so there is no quick script.

I'll try to find another LaTeX book under a free license that crashes
with XeLaTeX (I have tried five and they compile fine).

If anyone has a suggestion on a rather large source document or it could
even provide the quick script to anonymize the text, I'll really
appreciate it.

Thanks again for your help,

This don't tell much, you need to build xetex with debug symbols (no
idea how).

[XeTeX] xelatex crashes with a large document (TL2010)

2010-06-24 Thread Pablo Rodríguez 

Hi there,

I have installed TL 2010 from TUG and XeLaTeX crashes with rather large 
documents (books not written by me). It crashes also with --no-pdf 
option activated.


I'm afraid that I cannot provide a minimal sample, I cannot make the 
texts available. all I can do is to attach the crash below.


Needless to say, I had no problem to compile those books using XeLaTeX 
from TL2010.


Just in case it might help,
