Help Latest Facebook app is constantly crashing

My wife has a Neo, and Facebook has always worked fine for her, but since installing the most recent update it's constantly forcing close when she tries to use the app. It's not instant - usually after trying to load another page of updates, trying to post something on her wall or comment on friends' updates. It'll hang for a bit, then say that the FB app has stopped responding, with the only real option available to Force Close.

The fact that it's happening after a bit of time makes me think it's probably a RAM issue, and sure enough if I look at running processes, the Facebook app and services are taking up 50MB of RAM while running.

Got a couple of questions I guess -

1) Is anyone else having this problem?
2) Is there a way to choose which services/apps auto-run on the Neo so that we can eliminate the processes we really don't care about?
