Hi,
It is a known problem in the Pharo 5 image due to spur migration.
The memory is released but the image file is not reduced at saving time.
Cheers,
Vincent

Objet : [Moose-dev] Moose image does not shrink
If I download latest and greatest moose image and latest and greatest VM for linux, I evaluate this code:
nil asParser star parse: 'b'
That leads to an infinite loop and I terminate after a few seconds using ctrl + . my image grows to approximately 500MB.
The problem is, if I close all the windows, call Smalltalk garbageCollect as many times as I want, the image is still 500MB (or 1.2GB in my real-case scenario).
Cheers,
Jan
