iOS SIGKILL using iOS 4.3 Simulator with uninteres

Question

"Just minding my own business, iOS app running in the simulator. Not doing anything terribly interesting ... just moving between view controllers ... and then a pause ... and KABLAMMO!"

I immediately looked at backtraces for all threads (see below), but I'm not seeing anything particularly eventful:

(n.b.: In the Debug Navigator, Thread 7 is listed as com.apple.CFSocket.private, and Thread 4 is listed as WebThread.)

I suppose the OS killed my app off, but I'm not sure why.

Excessive memory use? Well, we're in the simulator (but, yes, I'm cautious with that already - no memory warnings spotted during debug either).

Blocking the main thread? Umm ... not that I'm aware of! The UI seemed responsive enough when it happened.

Anything interesting in the run log? Nope ... rather everyday stuff going on, but that's it. :\

Further insight and thoughts appreciated!

See this question for a similar (identical?) ish.
