constant crashing after upgrading to monterey mac pro

I've seen daily, sometimes multiple times a day, crashing on my machine since upgrading to Monterey. There seems to be no consistency in the crashes. While browsing safari, sending a message, reading an email, using After Effects, Maya, etc. Just random spontaneous crashes that result in a black screen and a restart.


I don't know what to do. Here's my crash report:

If you have any software that wastes computer resources on a regular basis, such as speeder-uppers, Cleaner-uppers/Removers, Optimizers, Virus Scanners, third-party file Sync-ers such as DropBox, OneDrive, or GoogleDrive, or a VPN that you installed yourself, it will do busywork at previously-impossible speeds. Virus scanners in particular are notorious for causing panics like the one you posted, which appears to be a deliberate panic.


Kernel Panic Reports are stored at:

/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports


If you copy and paste that string into:

Finder > Go menu > Go to Folder


it will take you to where those reports are stored.


They are named with Date&Time and start or end in ‘panic’

If you find one, please post the entire report here, by using the “additional text” Icon in the reply footer (looks like a paper with writing).


Please don’t post more about 20 lines of any other types of reports — they are interminable, and any information useful for this purpose is on the first screenful.


There are three quick take-aways from any panic report.


1) The panic-reason,


2) the extensions present at the "scene of the crime", and


3) the BSD process in which the problem occurred.


One more item that is important is the names of any third-party Extensions you have added. They are shown FIRST in the extensions loaded section


————

Take look at your other reports. What you are trying to determine is whether there is a TREND.


Case A) There is a trend: This same panic occurs in each case, with the same extensions present, in the same BSD process. A trend can indicate corrupted software or a Hardware problem that can be tracked down and solved.


Case B) There is a decided NON-Trend. The panics occur "all over the Map" for different panic reasons and in different BSD processes, with different extensions present.


A Non-trend suggests you may have RAM memory problems. MacOS slightly randomizes the load point of key routines on each startup, as a hedge against fixed-address attacks. This causes a marginal memory cell to move into different routines each time your Mac starts up.


If the above is just "word-salad" to you, just ask and Readers can explain a bit more.

Just be warned -- Apple support is happy to REFERENCE anything you posted here, and will read it, but they never believe any conclusions we make here -- they always need to rediscover according to their own procedures, which they consider more rigorous.


Apple specialists have a lot more technical knowledge, but far less patience than the first responders.
