Whether it gives a possibility to make the garbage collector manually by programm an not automatic?

You have two options:
1. disable and enable the GC by hand (this could kill the system, if you use a lot of memory) 2. allocate a memory block (with SYSTEM.NEW) and do whatever you want with its contents
You should only use untraced pointers in this block. Using normal pointers could (and probably will) crash the GC.
Me too ! Because of crisis management here, my work-horse is loaded down: 10 days since I rebooted, and hundreds of e-mails, News, https have passed through (some are still 'packed' as viewers waiting to be filed). Now sometime a mouse or key response delay of half a second occurs. I'm guessing that 'forced' GC is often causing the delay ? Is the heap off-on loaded to/from the hard drive ? I think the RAM is only 20 Mb. I did HyperDocs.ClearCache with no noticable improvement. Perhaps unloading unused modules ? Or is this done automatically ? -- Chris Glur.
