Steve,

Just a hunch as this sounds strangely familiar.  Can
you determine how many strings you're creating and
concatenating?

I ran into a problem some years back where I was
returning map(c,s1,s2) where c was a 1 character
string.  For each character I would do this 9 times
creating 9 new strings.  As I was concatenating the
result with the previous function a character at a
time, it got pathelogical.  Even for a few hundred
characters of message I overflowed the Icon GC
counter.
