Considering that Omni has a reputation for making high-quality apps and providing good support, I think it's wasteful and counter-productive to sling mud at this time. Also remember that Apple is making it hard to get anything loaded on the app store.

I know it's frustrating to run into this sort of thing. It's doubly so when it's your productivity app which should be saving you time, and is critical to your day.

This is definitely a factor, but I don't know how big a factor. Playing music certainly uses up memory. I don't know how long Safari holds on to memory when it's not running, or how much it uses.

Sorry this is happening - the 'thousands of actions' bit only applies to folks that are syncing their OmniFocus database with their iPhone database.

From the information you mentioned in another thread, you're not synching; you also mentioned that this is one action with two pictures and an audio recording attached. Audio and pictures both occupy a lot more space in memory than the text we use to represent an action without attachments.
I don't know enough about how the app works to know if that's the cause. If we are loading those attachments into memory before you view them, it's certainly a possibility. If you're seeing a "Loading..." progress bar, and we crash before the bar fills, that would seem more likely.

If we're just starting up and crashing straight away, it's more likely that the problem is one of the ones mentioned in this Apple tech note. Do those steps help at all?
