Try turning on Compiz. You'll see some crashing.

  I did that a few months ago, actually. The only crash I had was because I forgot to update my driver for the new video card I got. Since then, it's been as stable as my pre-Compiz system.

  Why would I do that? What does Compiz do for me? It's just whirling cubes and wavy windows.

  I use Compiz all the time, and I have no problems with crashes. I like the effects, but there is one that is very helpful: alt+mousescroll allows me to change the transparency of the selected window. As I don't have multiple monitors, I find this very convenient when coding (or any other task where I have to refer to information in another window). I also like "rolling the windows up" like a window shade (available on some themes. I dunno...I just do!

    That's the first time I've ever run across something Compiz does that would actually be useful to me over a non-compositing window manager.
