 Hi,
 My Kids are using Turtle Art frequently, it is a cool Activity.
 Few weeks a go, I upgraded there XO-1 including Turtle Art to 130.

 How ever, after while when there are working with it, the whole XO
 freezes. Top showed over 90MB resident memory. Since my self, I'm python
 greenhorn, I'm not able to track it down.

 here the "top" output right after start :
 # top -b -n 1 | grep Turtle
  3702 romanp    20   0  129m  54m  14m S    0  2.7   0:01.21 Turtle Art
 <851

 After putting a simple prg. basically doing for(a=0;a<5000;a++);
 #top -b -n 1 | grep Turtle
  3702 romanp    20   0  162m  87m  14m S    0  4.4   0:10.06 Turtle Art
 <851

 After running it the 1. time (clicking run)
 #top -b -n 1 | grep Turtle
  3702 romanp    20   0  165m  90m  14m R   97  4.5   0:22.09 Turtle Art
 <851

 After running it the 2. time  (clicking run again)
 #top -b -n 1 | grep Turtle
  3702 romanp    20   0  169m  94m  14m S    0  4.7   0:35.90 Turtle Art
 <851


 After staying Turtle as it was after the point before for about 10-15 min.
 doing nothing.
 #top -b -n 1 | grep Turtle
  3702 romanp    20   0  172m  97m  15m S    0  4.9   0:39.72 Turtle Art
 <851

 roman
