I've seen those glitches in the Factor UI, Factor 64 bits build, Win7 64.
Sorry I never reported, I was hoping to find a way to reproduce it.
They seem to happen after having some errors in the code I'm working on. I suspect of memory leaks, I'm not sure.
If you suspect of something, I think I could do some testing this weekend maybe, or some time soon.
 
I think it's either GC, or the UI. I've got two links by now:

They happen pretty rarely, mostly when I interactively do memory-intensive stuff, like load my DBs, use Inspector on the arrays and tuples, and code for hours or even days working on the data. But that's not necessarily the case, as explained in the description for the first video. In that case it glitched almost immediately after startup, and no DBs were loaded.
 
What could be the cause for the behavior seen? Apparently some text gets drawn in the wrong areas. Either some pointers get mixed up (like unboxing of a string gives the wrong string), or the drawing happens at the wrong coordinates.
 
I'm not familiar with the UI subsystem enough (like, what happens when a piece of text is selected with the mouse) to speculate further.
