The hardware I'm running on now is very new - 4 months old. It was a whole new system. Intel i7-3770k at 3.5Ghz with 16GB high end non-ECC RAM. 3x2TB HDD's in RAIDZ1 (ZFS filesystem) for data storage, 128GB SSD boot disk, 850W PSU etc. I did thorough tests of my hardware, and there doesn't seem to be any problems. Also, all other software run fine - just not Lazarus. Also the Windows copy that does run fine, runs in a VM session. So if it was faulty memory or some other hardware failure (very unlikely), that VM should be affected too. My current OS (FreeBSD 9.1) is rock solid though - no other software issues. I suspect the issue might be related to LCL-GTK2, because often the same checkout of Lazarus runs way better under Windows than under Linux. I always try and keep FPC and Lazarus versions in sync, across all my development VM's. I never compile Lazarus with LCL-Qt, but maybe it is time I try. The one major downside of switching to LCL-QT would mean I can't have horizontal file tabs to the right of my editor. But if LCL-QT solves the problems I experience, then the right positioned tab issue is something I can live with.
