Smart Dashboard Values Freezing

We're having trouble with values on the SmartDashboard freezing after a few minutes of runtime. Only one value (set to update every 5 thousandths of a second from the robot code), freezes, and the others stay working.
After a few Google searches, I can't seem to find anything useful in alleviating the situation.

One theory I have is that I'm trying to update too quickly, and I should write the value to a local in periodic tasks, and then have a separate loop to push it to the dashboard at 30fps or something more reasonable.

The other would be I need to allocate this specific value it's own prefix.

I'll try to fix those tomorrow if I don't find any other potential answers than those, because I really have no concrete answer of what is wrong with it.
