I will admit, when it came to brainstorming sources of crashes with threads, AI has helped me find sources I hadn't considered (as a systems guy, multi threading real experience is something I am sprinting through)

Basically, my app is a memory hog. I went all-in on performance, and neglected frugality. Lots of caches, local copies, and pass-by-value.

I suspect the best solution will be architectural, which promises to be a pain.

[RobRivera]

Yea, one cant go all in on performance, and then not co soder architecture.

A language choice is a starting point but you have to know the techniques of architecture learned.

It looks like it wasn't too painful. I just kept a couple of array references too long. The LLM gave me some threaded crap, and I now need to make sure to let go, before another thread grabs the PC.

That's the issue with the new "memory is cheap" model. I cut my teeth with 256 BYTES (not KB or MB) of space for the program, the stack, and the scratch.

But I've gotten sloppy, over the years.
