Server crashes cant save workflow

Ive changed a sproc. I go to update the service that references that. I then goto the use of that service on the designer canvas to update it to take in the new params. 
The service just vanishes in the background. Then in the designer I cant save my changes as there is no server. I dont loose much data but I have to then restart which is annoying. Its intermittent at the moment. If I get steps to reproduce ill post them here.
This has happened a couple times while playing with sproc related updated. I do hit ctrl-s a lot without thinking from just general coding so maybe the multiple saves are somehow causing badness when talking to the server?
