I am on linux (Gentoo amd64) with STEAM_RUNTIME=1 and I see random crashes when playing. Information that may be relevant:

I agree, those issues should be addressed. They're critical on 32 bit systems with <4 Gb of available memory per process, it's impossible to play with High textures without crashes every single match. But on 64 they're close to negligible. I saw improvements after updating the videodriver to 331.20 but as I see you're already using it try to update the kernel.
Wondering how you have deduced that I am using 331.20. Pretty sure I have not posted this information. I do use nvidia-drivers-331.20 though.
