Thanks guys. Showing that it worked OK with 12G really helped. Not a J problem. Had to shop this morning so left it running. Came back several hours later and it finished and the computer unlocked. I only have 8G of real memory and the array size was 8G (not thinking when I did it) so apparently it was a paging problem. I have never been impressed with Window's memory/paging management. It seems that there is no priority scheduling of paging of screen and keyboard services so they never never got any service. Everything is high priority so nothing is.
