Maybe more information given first... Have you narrowed it down to just the
isosurface causing the problem. I recall rendering incredibly slow
isosurfaces, for whatever the reason about them, which I'd have thought
wasn't rendering anything.

If you post the isosurface part of your scene file, if that is all that
could be the problem, then it might help people offer advice about it.

I don't know how the Linux one differs but if it can crash the program and
not show a sign of error then something could be wrong with POV itself. But
maybe it's sort of looping on some calculation.
