I always found it strange what effect loading Glorp had on an image, blowing it up.

Looks like it is really an effect of the Glorp code. Maybe because it was initially exported from VW and then imported into Squeak/Pharo. I always thought slow loading is because of this or the long license texts in the classes. At least I had similar issues when I loaded the "Glorp-EstebanMaringolo.92" from October 2014. I was not able to browse diffs, etc. when I wanted to clean up. Then I commited "Glorp-TorstenBergmann.93" without real changes and things started to stabilize. At least I was able to browse the diffs afterwards and could refactor a little bit with Glorp-TorstenBergmann.94. Bye T.
