STUDIO ONE - New instability in Studio One with KK 3.0

Having had another several day go at KK3.0 (before giving up in frustration), I can report that I am having a significant number of crashes while using KK instances loaded with spitfire plugins. This is something I have not experienced in the past even with Kontakt 7. I don't know if this is a S1 issue or just a broader KK issue but for you Studio One users, all is not good under the hood with KK 3.0. Note that I am an MK2 user but I wouldn't think that matters.

Reverted back to 2.9.6

System: Windows 11 Pro w/64 gb ram
