Wolverine was killed in days of the future past when a sentinal blasted all of his flesh off of him all at the same time.
This was in an alternate future timeline that was averted by some funky time traveling.
Wolverine has died when he sacrifised himself along with his fellow X-Men, when his sould was used to seal up a breach that would have let hordes of demons into the dimension the heros are in. This was a magical means.
Wolverine has never died through physical means, he's lost massive amounts of blood, and been inflicted with what would be fatal wounds for normal people.
The only times his healing factor seem to need him to heal for long periods of time is if it's for a story or if it's at the end of a very long battle.
Wolverine was once crucified with stakes being driven through between his bones. And despite being on there for along time he did not die their either.
And if you know about how people die from crusification its because they litterally suffocate. When the whole body weight was supported by the stretched arms, the victim would have severe difficulty exhaling, due to hyper-expansion of the lungs. The victim would therefore have to draw himself up by his arms, or have his feet supported by tying or by a wood block. Indeed, Roman executioners were said to break the victim's legs, after he had hung for some time, in order to hasten his death. Once deprived of support and unable to lift himself, the victim would die within a few minutes.
But this wasn't the case for Wolverine, he pulled himself off after a few days and Jubilee hid him until he healed, his healing factor probably being taxed from working for days on end without rest or nutrition.
