What does the J 7!:x show about space during this activity? If the space
problem shows up in windows task manager, and not in 7!:x then the problem
is in j.exe. There might be some workarounds for the problem. For example,
rather than repeatedly calling 11!:2999 (and perhaps triggering the
problem), build up to the final argument in J and then call 11!:2999 just 1
time.
