Three things:

Do you have swap turned on? If so, how much is being used just before it
crashes?

The free command should tell you this: if you want to script this,
something like
while true ; do free >> ~/free.log ; sleep 30 ; done
should append the output of "free" to a logfile in your home directory
until you press Ctrl-C.

Thirdly,
top -b -d30 > ~/top.log
ought to do you.

Hope this helps,

James.
