I think I found a main reason for segfaults. I only looked at raw-md5 but it might be in all/some of the others too:
When you allocate pinned_partial_hashes and map partial_hashes, you allocate as "4 * kpc" (where kpc is synonym with GWS) while I believe it's supposed to be "multiplier * 4 * kpc" or perhaps rather "loaded_count * 4". I haven't fully digested the new code so I'm not sure which but it's definitely allocated too small now. This is easily triggered when using a low GWS and a high number of loaded hashes.
cheers,
magnum
