This is evidently a parallel-query worker, so it's unlikely you'd ever
get anywhere near this crash with a "small" data sample; for starters
there'd have to be enough data to prompt use of a parallel plan.

I doubt that the crash is very data-specific though.  Maybe just fill
the table with a lot of dummy data?
