- I have a program that runs well for some time
- and then gradually becomes slower and slower and slower.
-
- I have tracked the problem down to the fact that
- when it has becomed very slow, a single
-
- (make-record :rgbcolor) (or any mac memory allocation)
-
- takes almost half a second!
-
- Strangely, at this point, a (ROOM) shows 145K of free
- Mac Heap.
-
- Any idea someone?
- Thanks.
