No Problem, yesterday I was mainly executing automated tests as well
as monitoring a performance load test. So I could watch a terminal
scrolling pass, read the bbc new web site again or check emails.

Personally I stopped using Safari a few months ago because it just
randomly crash, stopped responding, failing to load pages, etc.

I would suggest everyone installs Firefox and Chrome and if the site
fails in one, check it in the other and it might work.

"cause a cycle" to me depends on where you see it but most commonly
would indicate the code has detected that it is looping or is about to
start looping, so forced it to stop.

Assume the properties file x.properties look like the following.
----
next_properties_file_to_load=x.properties

The program is told to read x.properties
The program is told when loading a properties file, always check for
"next_properties_file_to_load" and load that properties file.

1) The program starts
2) The program load x.properties
3) The program attempts to load "next_properties_file_to_load"
4) The property "next_properties_file_to_load" exists so load it
5) The program loads the properties files defined in the variable
"next_properties_file_to_load"
6) The program attempts to load "next_properties_file_to_load" from
the newly loaded properties file
7) The property "next_properties_file_to_load" exists so load it
8) Same as step 5
9) Same as step 6
10) Same as step 7

The program has got itself into a loop. Smart programmers would
anticipate this and between step 3 and 4, would store a list of
properties files opened and check if it's the file has already been
loaded. If it's asked to open a properties file for a 2nd time it
might report the error as it would have detected that it's got into.
