Yup, vala is pretty crash happy and memory hungry. The plumbing is in place to move it out of process, just needs to be done.
Comment 2 Alberto Ruiz 2015-11-10 15:38:43 UTC
Well, regardless of looking for strategies, it'd be nice to understand the root cause of this crash anyway.

Is this something I should reassign to libvala?

> Well, regardless of looking for strategies

I meant to say, strategies to make Builder more robust.
Comment 4 Christian Hergert 2016-02-22 03:06:53 UTC
We should definitely fix this in libvala too. But I'd like to keep this bug around for us to track moving Vala out of process.
