Here is some additional data - attached - I checked the number of instances on select Classes before a UI load, during the UI load and after the UI load (and again). The class instances grow as expected, but do no release. I'm doing something wrong. I'm going to try a fresh image next, however, I expect the same thing to happen, just starting over at zero.

Dario, Thanks for the reply!
When I closed my image - after running that huge query and leaving it in an inspector... my image grew to 1.3GB, lol.
When I closed the inspector, and all the class browsers, did the garbage collection, etc., it dropped back to 384MB. Still huge, and all my Class instances are still there. I'm getting ready to also drop my Playground - after I copy all the code snippets out and see if that has any impact. I'm also going to try a fresh image and see if there is the same growth pattern as here.
Perhaps I'm doing something wrong with the way I'm creating and storing my object instances - which is generally Class new, fill out some attributes, then add it to a collection or Dictionary.
All my Object tests create sample data (objects) - over and over as well.

Ciao,
My image size keeps growing and growing. I've been scouring Google and mailing lists, trying to find a solution.
i have the same problem with a Pharo 7 image.
Maybe it has nothing to do.
But after close all the class browser windows the image save return to a " valid " size.
