Bonjour,
What an awesome list !
Thank you much Richard, Jim, Pierre and Bernd for your prompt answers and advices.
Given your help (and a good night :-) I feel far better!
I am just going to study them a bit more, but I already glimpse fairly clearly how I shall get my handlers free from "the long repeat loop" ;-))

Thanks again

Best regards from Grenoble

Andre,
I ran into the same problem when analysing 3500 stacks distributed over 3 computers, over 1000 stacks on each. Rev crashed. In the repeat loop version you could watch the memory go down in the activity monitor (on a Mac) and
once it went into virtual memory soon after it crashed.
Than I did a send in time version and it went smoothly and fast even though
it was over a local area network.
I made a bug report as a minor bug #6631 which has a demo stack that shows
how repeatedly loading a stack and deleting it afterwards crashes
revolution. And there is the send in time version that avoids crashing.
Essentially it is like the code Richard has proposed.

Once you get the idea of send in time constructs they are a) easy to do and b) keep you out of trouble because Revolution can do it's housekeeping while
you do your long and tedious computing.

It may be a design flaw to put that amount of data into that many individual stacks but there were reasons for me to choose this approach. And with the
send in time approach all went well.

regards
Bernd

I don"t see how I could avoid the repeat loop ? (how to use a "send in
time" structure ? is it instead of the repeat loop ??)
