The only time I have had Safari crash on me is when I'm watching Netflix, using HTML 5. It's when switching to and from full screen. It doesn't happen all the time.
I do however have an issue where tabs are not selectable in Safari. The tab bar glitches out and disappears. So using the pinch gesture that shows all open tabs is a workaround.
The problem goes away when you quit Safari.
Ps: I'm extremely tired. So, sorry for any bad grammar or confusion.

Anyone else having issues with Safari on the public beta release? About 2-3 days ago I started having issues with Safari. Until a few days again, Safari was running just fine. I'm not sure what's changed, but Safari is constantly crashing. I installed Chrome to get by until its resolved. Other than that, the beta has been running great.
Maybe clear out all your cache and history.
I never did before. Had over 5 gigs of random stuff saved. Safari runs a lot better now!
Oh and try disabling all your extensions too, and see how that works.
