John,

This sounds like *exactly* what's happening to me.  Indeed, the problem shows
up in long runs that use SWIFT models, but does not in another version that
uses some old SourceModels instead.   I tried all the OpenWindows patches,
but it didn't help.  Sigh...  I guest I have to wait for v3.5 (or v3.6 or
v3.7...)

Thanks for confirming I'm not crazy!
