Run jbreak twice to interrupt the running sentence (at the next point where it allocates memory, which is often).  A single Jbreak interrupts only at the end of a sentence.

This is blindingly obvious, but you didn’t mention it!

Hi!

Is there any way to avoid the situation whereby by  error I put J into an 
infinite loop from which the only recovery is to reboot my Windows laptop?

I guess that my erroneous routine is locking the CPU to such a such an extent 
that I can’t even get to run Jbreak.

I quite often receive a recoverable situation when a limit has been exceeded 
but if I get the infinite loop situation I have lost my entire session and have 
to start again.

I really need a global setting which limits the amount of cpu usage and aborts 
a function before it gets out of hand.

Thanks,

Richard
