On Win2K, there are some problems that I have located and fixed in
the upcoming version 4.3 that should solve a bunch of the socket
problems, crashes, and hangs with larger data sets and communication
via the message window.

I have had very similar problems, although my app is larger (*.net >
1mb, + macros of 650k or so).
Whilst I find it irritating, my solution is to open the net with a
default setting that doesn't really do much except load the ui,
bring up my image window, that sort of thing. I execute this in
"once only" mode, bring up the ui then select the data file I want
and execute this "once" only as well. thus, I basically load the ui
and data (well a part of the data any way) in 2 steps. Then I go for
execute on change mode and all works OK, most of the time.
Also, having a powerful machine seems to help. I use 1.5GB ram and
can easily handle data files c300MB. However on 756MB machines the
same data files sometime choke. I haven't worried too much about
this, scale I know my dx app and data file structures could be
streamlined significantly. I was planning on a rewrite in the next
few months, and if the problems persisted then bring the topic up.
However Joel beet me to it, so....

ps, this is under win2K.
