Mmm if I read right you typically get no crashes.

I'm assuming of course people are willing to whine at me if the 
macintosh VM crashes. If of course you are getting crashes then I've 
a wonderful debuggable VM to give you with some MacsBugs 
instructions. OS-X users should check the release notes for howto 
turn on the crash reporter and send me OS-X crash logs (never gotten 
any yet). Somehow I miss the days of reading IBM MVS core dumps.

Well not quite, now NCP dumps that was more thrilling.

However I will point out that if you run low on memory the Mac VM 
becomes shall we say very unresponsive, something about recursive 
full GC events makes the world go *very* slow.
