On my Windows 8.1 machine Sigil 0.7.4 runs just fine even when I edit very large file with it. In the past, I very rarely experienced crashes when switching from Code View to Book View. It sometimes happened when I did a global search and replace that lead to invalid HTML code that was too much for Sigil's autofix code.

Did you get a not well formed XML message and did you click the Fix Automatically button before the crash?

Can you attach a single page ePub sample file that'll always crash Sigil versions higher than 0.6.2 when you switch to Book View mode?

As other already pointed out, aside and epub:type are ePub3 only features that Sigil is not designed to handle and that you don't have to use unless you design ePub3 for iDevices.
