Yesterday I've updated to Premiere Pro CC 2015.3 (10.3.0 202). Now when I export a video which uses the lumetri color effect it randomly crashes when using GPU acceleration:

A week ago I updated to the lates NVidia driver. I successfully exported some videos with lumetri color effect and using the GPU (like I did before with a driver from last summer). I did a fresh install of the same NVidia driver two days ago (because I had a problem with the Windows 10 memory compression process where it was suggested to do a clean install of the graphics driver). I did not render videos after that. And yesterday I updated Adobe Premiere.
It crashes rather randomly. Even with the projects I rendered successfully a couple of days ago. It feels like it crashes faster if I do something else (browsing the Web, watching video, using GPU-Z ...)
In this thread Lumetri Color makes "Error compiling movie. Unknown error" all the time... somebody writes that maybe the number of CUDA cores could be a problem. But the GPU usage is usually only at 10 to 50%.
From this article (Adobe Premiere CC 2015 CC 2014 CC CS6 CS5.5 CS5 Video Cards with CUDA Mercury Playback Unlock MPE Hack David Knarr ) it seems that the number of cores may not be the problem but maybe the size of the memory? It says 1 GB is minimum and it should be 2 for HD. And my GTX 570 only has 1280 MB.
I also found some benchmarks on this site. Regarding those newer/better graphics cards do not perform that better in real world premiere projects: Adobe Premiere Video Cards Benchmark Project vs. a Real Premiere Project- Written by David Knarr (the graphs do not start at zero with the real world projects).
Do you have any tips regarding my problem? Has anybody else a problem with the new version? Can I go back to 2015.2?
