After updating Photoshop, the application crashes whenever I open large PSD files (over 500 MB). I have tried restarting my computer, resetting Photoshop preferences, updating my graphics driver, and disabling GPU acceleration, but the issue still occurs.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Launch Photoshop.
2. Open a large PSD file.
3. Wait for the file to load.
4. Photoshop freezes and then crashes.

Expected result:
The PSD file should open normally without crashing.

Actual result:
Photoshop becomes unresponsive and closes unexpectedly.

System:
Windows 11 (64-bit)
Latest Photoshop version
