I worked with a similar project (470 pages total, 11 chapters, each with about 5 or 6 sections  plus an appendix) and sometimes it crashed after I included a chapter ( which has about 5 sections). 
My workaround ( without actually knowing the cause) was to check which file made the crash ( in my case a section), as Philippe suggests, then create a new file where I would copy all contents of that section ( or re-write). I am guessing there was something in that file that was making it crash, but again, I don’t know.

I know how frustrating this is when you are close to a deadline! I

I've seen a number of students writing their thesis with Texmacs. Just like
you do, they aggregate separate chapters and it works very well. In their
cases the number of chapters was not that high but I would be very surprised
if your issue were simply due to having many chapters.

Do you mean that 24 is a number you cannot go above (whatever the chapters you
remove, for instance the last ones or the first ones...)?

Starting from your working master with 24 chapters did you try to add the
remaining chapters one at a time to see if the problem appeared with one
specific chapter? If so, this would significantly narrow down on the problem.
