Sorry for not correct thread title.

I dont need save image in background while all system continue work.

I just want save image from my smalltalk process.
And when I do this I sometimes cant restart image (it crash due to some
world cycle activity and freetype plugin failure).
But when I save image manually I never see that situation.

Maybe somebody know why this happen? And how I must save image from some
smalltalk process correctly?
