   I wonder if they are not doing some type of "garbage collection"?
   Boy, wouldn't that be something :) Heap? We don't need no stinkin'

Could be, but it seems like it goes on all the time.  Once it starts,
that's it.

I'm going to have to experiment more to see exactly what combination

on our Mac II running System 6.0.5, but it sure happens a lot on our
IIci running 6.0.7.
