 Try implemeting it:

            ip nat translation max-entries <n>
ip nat translation udp-timeout <seconds>
 ip nat translation dns-timeout <seconds>
 ip nat translation tcp-timeout <seconds>
 ip nat translation finrst-timeout <seconds>

Also please paste - sh run | inc ip route, make sure you are not using any
broadcast interface as the next hop on any static, I've seen those happening
and crashing many routers before, always specify the next hop ip address.

Tune your NAT settings, implement, wait, verify and observe, get back to us
with positive results :-)
