Even with the fix in place the low space watcher does not kick in to handle the situation of an infinite recursion on windows. I *guess* there is no upper memory bound for squeak on windows (or at least I don't know how to change that) and so the low space watcher process in squeak does not get signaled until swap space runs out. On linux there is a different situation when you start the vm with an explicit memory limit (otherwise it should be the same as on windows). I would say this
Newer Linux VM's grow memory dynamically, and do not start with any explicity memory limit.
