Hi,

I'm experiencing incredibly long delays during some GC's on NT4 systems. The
time taken seems to increase dramatically from less than a second to almost
an hour, depending on how many controls (and their associated objects) are
in use at the time.

Our app is a fairly straightforward Windows Forms application, but a couple
of our forms make use of quite heavily nested controls; it's when these are
in use that the excessively long GC times occur.

This problem doesn't happen on 2000/XP, and the forms work well.

I've tested this by varying the quantities of controls and manually calling
GC.Collect() and GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers().

Any idea why we're hitting this problem? Something different about NT4?

Cheers,
G.
