Just stripped my Blur down for it's Spring service, & found a seized BB bearing. Also pitted/rusted wear on the Raceface crank spindle.

New drive gear all round required!

Certainly not Raceface.

Shimano XT M770 looks favourite at the mo - fairly regular looking, but (from reports I'm reading) relatively bombproof.

SLX cranks are pretty similar to XT but much cheaper...definatly worth a look.
