getBoksMacs is sometimes, but not always, segfaulting and we need some hints about debugging.

From getBoksMacs.log it seems that i it crashes early, right after reading the database:

This is the native JVM crashing. I really have no idea why, but it appears to be segfaulting during garbage collection.

The JVM seems to be running in server mode by default (I assume because of the machine having multiple cores or CPUs) - you could try running it explicitly in client mode to see if it makes any difference. Alter JVM_OPTS_GETBOKSMACS in nav.conf to include the "-client" option.

Nonetheless, this problem should be reported to your JVM vendor.
