What version of FreeBSD are you using? With garbage collection enabled, Mono has behaved this way for me for quite some time on FreeBSD 5.x. If you have the Ports Collection, /usr/ports/lang/mono is marked as broken for all 5.x versions up to and including 5.2-current. With FreeBSD 4.x, I believe that Mono works fine. This behavior is something I have been wanting to try to fix for a while, but Linux systems are readily available enough to me that getting FreeBSD fixed is not a very high priority (even though I prefer to use FreeBSD). -Patrick -- Patrick L.
