So we've gone from "the app crashes randomly, instantly, with no recourse" to "the app hangs, but eventually comes back." This is an improvement, but not perfect. Unfortunately none of the bugs I've looked at to date have exhibited the multi-minute GC hangs you're reporting. Would it be possible for you to file a bug for this and attach a project exhibiting this issue?
