Do you anything done in this snippet above is wrong ? Because commenting this out leads to no crashes at all. The moment this is included, everything goes to hell.

No, doing a lot of computations never leads to a crash.

Yes, the placement new you added is correct and your crash is caused
by something else. The "use after free" messages you are getting
indicate that your code is doing something wrong with pointers and
accessing unallocated regions of memory.
