Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have.

Dear Bug Team!
When editing text files on several occasions the program becomes
unresponsive to the keyboard and suddenly starts grabbing memory - so
a 2 MB file will require 1.5 GB memory. I have to kill the program.
The problem seems to occur when marking blocks of text, but is rather
hard to replicate
Thanks
This bug is triggered by grabbing a selection that is too large. You
can workaround this problem by:
(setq zmacs-regions nil)
See the thread starting at
http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-beta/200112/msg00367.html
for more details.
