<p>That FAQ (about memory limitations) was not the answer but it
led me to the answer: Another processor-intensive app was running.
I found it this way . . . First I cut BeaTunes back to 2 parallel
processes and BPM analysis only (at max accuracy vs fast), and the
crashing stopped. But still, at 2 processes running Windows Task
Manager was telling me that all six of my (AMD) processors were
super busy so I dug deeper. Sorting processes by CPU, I could see
another app competing for top spot. This was the problem: I donate
my CPU "idle time" to World Community Grid (WCG) for scientific
research (protein folding in this case), and when it appears that I
am not at the computer, it will run scientific calculations. It was
running because I wasn't active at the keyboard while BeaTunes was
doing its thing. That plus BeaTunes had six CPUs up at 90%. Adding
any more processes or tasks to BeaTunes would make it crash. But
with WCG stopped I was able to raise the number of parallel
processes for BeaTunes to 4 (BPM only), and it's been running
comfortably at 60% average CPU load without incident for the last 2
hours, according to the Performance tab on Windows Task
Manager.</p>
<p>Issue is resolved, thanks. You might want to add this to your
FAQ. Great product.<br>
