[Pharo-dev] Freeze while running a loop

[Gaurav Singh]

My window freezes whenever i try to run a loop which has even 100000
iterations which are quite less for a computational device.
Let say i run :
[| temp |
temp := String new.
(1 to: 100000)
do: [:i | temp := temp, i asString, ' ']] timeToRun.
The time taken to compute is a few milliseconds , but the program freezes
for quite a few seconds, What can be the problem ?
