<div>I think we might be better off shifting the way we approach this problem. It's difficult to run these apps, and to run them in the same way the users do. There's also a long delay getting responses. I think we'd be better off focusing on adding comprehensive
memory tests to the test suite, measuring, plotting, and then documenting solutions/strategies into the user guide. It will take some time, but I think it's the best approach since everything would be under our own control, and it would provide solutions for
all users.</div>

<div>That sounds good, while we are waiting for debugging info from users. But we should still strive to reproduce problems that users are encountering, and on giving them code updates with additional debugging hooks or possible remedies to test.</div>
