Aperture Crashing when making book

Question

Since updating to the latest release of Aperture, I've noticed it has gotten a bit freeze-prone. Working on a new book today, I've had to force quit 7 times in the last 3 hours. Thank god for Aperture saving as I go along.
Has anyone else noticed this?
for example (all of the below require a force quit):
-freezing for no reason when browsing photos in my library. 
-freezing occasionally when making minor adjustments
-I'm currently making a book, my first since updating to 3.3 or whatever we're on now. I was incorporating a map into several pages and without fail, sometime during the process of choosing a location on each map creation, Aperture would "not respond" and freeze. I'd have to force quit.
Any ideas? I have no clue why this is happening. I'm running the top of the line 2013 21" imac, with really no other bloating or hi-needs programs other than Aperture. I'm solely running Aperture when doing any heavy editing. I really doubt it is the Mac.

Hopefully this will be fixed soon. You may want to send feedback to Apple to let the developers know of the problem.  Here is the feedback form:  Apple - Aperture - Feedback
And I hope your book will turn out great, in spite of the problems.
Unfortunately it will not help, to go offline, when entering the Places, because the connection to the server is needed. Going offline will prevent Aperture from crashing, as far as I can see, but the Place markers will not appear on the map, because there is not connection to the server.
