Hello, I have escalated this to my 2nd tier support team. I'm able to replicate the same problem on a clean site running PHP 5.6.40. PHP 7+ sites don't seem to have the same problem. I'll let you know what I find out as soon as possible.

Hello, our developers have discovered the source of the problem and are working on a solution. We hope to have a patch fully tested and available very soon. I'll let you know when that is available so you can use the very latest Views plugin. Until then, downgrading Views or upgrading PHP are the two known workarounds. Thanks for your continued patience.

Our developers have released a patch file that should solve this problem until the permanent fix can be included in an upcoming release of the software. The permanent fix is not included in today's release of Views 3.0.2, unfortunately, because of time constraints. It will be included in the next release after 3.0.2. Please find instructions for installing the patch in the erratum post: https://toolset.com/errata/views-3-0-1-crashes-sites-running-php-version-5-6-40-or-earlier/

Please let me know if the patch file does not resolve the problem completely and I will take a closer look.
