Segmentation fault when try to "Show Traits Family" of "traits collection" #102

Open dram opened 7 years ago

when I try to "Show Traits Family" of traits collection, Self will be silent without any response for several minutes, and then exited with a segmentation fault error.

Ha. That's fun. I think it's generating so many incidental objects that it's choking on them. If you toggle the spy on before you start you can see it filling up. On my Mac it survived - got to about 250MB worth of objects but didn't crash. I'll try again on Linux.

Do you mean *C-Heap"? It's not very high here, see following screenshot for more detail, which is taken in several minutes before crash:

That's not right. I'll try on Linux and see if I can reproduce.
