After trying many relaunches, occasionally (1 our of 30 times or so), the application isn't frozen, indicating some sort of race condition. When the UI is frozen, the jconsole indicates that the event dispatch thread is blocked: ``` Name: AWT-EventQueue-1 State: BLOCKED on java.awt.Component$AWTTreeLock@1bde9d17 owned by: main Total blocked: 10 Total waited: 61 Stack trace: java.awt.Container.dispatchEventImpl(Container.java:2300) java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Component.java:4711) java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEventImpl(EventQueue.java:760) java.awt.EventQueue.access$500(EventQueue.java:97) java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(EventQueue.java:709) java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(EventQueue.java:703) java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) java.security.ProtectionDomain$JavaSecurityAccessImpl.doIntersectionPrivilege(ProtectionDomain.java:74) java.security.ProtectionDomain$JavaSecurityAccessImpl.doIntersectionPrivilege(ProtectionDomain.java:84) java.awt.EventQueue$4.run(EventQueue.java:733) java.awt.EventQueue$4.run(EventQueue.java:731) java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) java.security.ProtectionDomain$JavaSecurityAccessImpl.doIntersectionPrivilege(ProtectionDomain.java:74) java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:730) org.GNOME.Accessibility.AtkWrapper$6.dispatchEvent(AtkWrapper.java:705) java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForFilters(EventDispatchThread.java:205) java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForFilter(EventDispatchThread.java:116) java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:105) java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:101) java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:93) java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:82) ``` When launching the Fiji java desktop application with openjdk java 8u172, no such problem occurs ever.
