What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to upload a 'small' (10s of rows) txt file
2. Had loaded several, much larger files in same session
3. After a point all new files caused a 'freeze' (address bar not progressing)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of Google Refine are you using?

Changed to 2.1 today, never seen the issue before

What operating system and browser are you using?

Max OS 10.7.1  Using latest version of safari

Is this problem specific to the type of browser you're using or it happens
in all the browsers you tried?

Please provide any additional information below.

Is this problem reproduceable with your small file?  If so, can you attach it 
here for debug purposes?

Not that memory is shared across all projects and recently opened projects are 
cached in memory, so it is theoretically possible that your new small project 
pushed you over the edge.

Andrew, could you please provide more info? (We'll wait for a few more days and 
close this as "can't repro".) Thanks.

Closing due to lack of response from reporter.  Feel free to reopen if you can 
provide additional information.
