      I'm testing an Importer ruby script and on larger files it creates the model in Windows XP, but on the Mac OSX it slows down and then crashes SketchUp. hmm....

      Checked the Activity monitor, and noticed that SU is eating up the memory, both the Active and the Inactive, and finally crashing the application....

      Watching the streaming error messages in the Console output window, it looks like tons of memory allocation (malloc(free)) attempts fail, trying to return nonaligned memory blocks, that would explain why the endless appetite of memory...

      I also noticed other errors in the console window (see 2nd console screenshot) which might already be the consequence of previous failures....

      Has anybody experienced similar things?
      It seems it is related to the ruby interpreter, but sure don't think anything can be done in the script.
