hello,

does anyone know why compiling and running this:

let _ =
	while true do
		Gc.full_major();
	done

results in a process that grows as quickly and as big as it can?

Lodewijk

It doesn't grow that fast, but that's still a good question.  I'll look
into it and I'll let you know when I have the answer.
