This is my share setup for Revit. Note the veto oplocks line; this was
necessary to get revit happy.

Have you looked in the samba log files? I'd turn up the debugging and
see what it is doing when a crash occurs. One of my customers is a
legacy firm - they have been around for about 60 years, and they went to
computers early, so we're always finding stuff that is 'just barely
failing', with strange symptoms and intermittent faults. It can be hard
to diagnose those faults.
The samba log files are really detailed and help out in figuring out
what is at fault.
