I don't use awesome myself so I don't know about it crashing, but it appears to be a base to build your own system from, in the sense that most of the functionality comes from extensions written in Lua.
Musca, my window manager of choice currently (though I am beginning to try out others too, just in case I'm missing something), is a very small WM with very few features, but a very simple way of extending it through scripting (in any language).
Musca itself is tiny: little under 4K lines of C (including whitespace and comments), the binary is about 190KB. It delegates its "menu" to dmenu. If you want anything else, you use external scripts or programs.
