I had been seeing something very similar to this. It was really hard to
track down and isolate.
We were calling displayIfNeeded on a progress bar from an NSTimer
spawned in the context of the main thread. That call was removed and
the problem hasn't cropped up since. I'm not totally convinced it's
solved though.
I'm not 100% certain if the NSTimer also executed in the context of the
main thread or not, but it looks like it was from the stack trace.
But it was weird because from our crash reports it didn't look like
anything bad was going on. displayIfNeeded was being called from the
main thread, but this strange heartBeatThread seemed to be doing
something bad at the same time. You'd figure whatever this system
thread was doing would be safe, but... we could never figure out what
the deal was with that heartbeat thread.
Here are a couple representative traces:
