No, this does not look related to bug #49609.

Harry - you say the crash occurs when a large array is displayed on the command window. Is this with the pager enabled (the default behavior if you haven't changed it is "more on")? Do you press Ctrl+C just once or do you press it 3 times before Octave crashes?

It is admittedly difficult to search for bugs on savannah, don't worry about reporting duplicates, when someone says that a bug may be a duplicate it isn't an accusation of a lack of effort on your part. The people working on triaging and fixing bugs can determine if it's a duplicate or not.

possibly, I am not sure, it is hard to search for all the different bug categories here, any tips on how it can be easier for us to do it?

Perhaps related to bug #49609?

I usually press CTRL-C when running my while loop, but if I have by accident the array being printed to the command line interface, I get a crash.
The arrays can get large.
This happens at other times but I don't know if it is repeatable. In the while loop I have cumtrapz going on with 3D large arrays, this is usually fine but when one of the columns 2D arrays during the while loop is displayed by accident, when I pressed CTRL C i get a crash
