Growl helper has crashed a ouple of times this week, using up all of
my CPU and most of my memory. I recorded a sample of what it was doing
when it crashed
Sampling process 130 for 1 seconds with 1 millisecond of run time
between samples
Sampling completed, processing symbols...
Analysis of sampling GrowlHelperApp (pid 130) every 1 millisecond
