Description Michael Rennie CLA 2017-11-23 09:28:19 EST
The latest build for the Electron app is not usable. While working on the orion.client code, after about 5 minutes the app will hang, my computer fan will spin up and I have to force quit it to make it go away.

There is never anything logged and I cannot open the debugger when this happens - because I assume it is running out of memory.

I'm setting this critical because after I kill it, it is a complete loss of work and workspace state.

Does starting electron from command line help capture error message?

Since I pushed in a fix for bug 522148 (https://github.com/eclipse/orion.client/commit/420b32101bc358db33ccc0604acbe6421c8317e3) I have not seen a crash.

We are conducting a few more tests and if they are all stable I will close this one.

Everything is looking good - closing.
