You can never exclude anything, but it seems very unlikely that the GC would be the problem. The GC copies objects so it is vulnerable to shadow data bugs. That is, some references might no be updated to point to the newly copied to location for the object. In the listener, you can run the minor-gc and gc words and see if there is a pattern or if you are able to trigger the bug that way. You can also recompile Factor to run in debug mode: nmake /f Nmakefile x86-64 DEBUG=1 Also I see that you are running Factor in compatibility mode because the fonts are all blurry. That is automatically enabled in Windows for Factor if you have a high dpi screen. You can try and disable it by right-clicking the .exe file and go: Properties -> Compatibility -> Inactivate scaling when using High DPI. -- mvh/best regards Björn Lindqvist ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
