How interesting. Here, I had got as far as identifying that before about 12 Aug there were no staggers, and afterwards the staggers were such that FG was unusable. Profiling indicated that hash.c was involved, and that meant that nasal was the likely cause. But, try as I would, I could not pin down any individual file. The new Nasal has pretty much solved that problem. Occasional staggers remain, but that is probably to do with threading, and reloading object/scenery etc. Profiling shows that hash.c is no longer the tall pole in the tent, and there are no other particular problems. So while we know how, we don't know why. Was there too much Nasal, or a dodgy file, or was the build defective in the first place, and the rebuild solved that problem? I've spent too long on this problem to try to go back and recreate it; I'm just very pleased that it has gone away.
