Description Paul DeRocco CLA 2014-12-08 19:13:42 EST 
Frequently, in the Disassembly pane, some of the lines beyond the current program counter oscillate between two different displays. It's happening too fast to see exactly what it is doing, but there appears to be some feedback mechanism whereby a source line is inserted and then removed over and over again. It may have something to do with the fact that optimization is cranked way up, so the relation between instructions and source lines is complicated, but it shouldn't do this. Occasionally, it gets the Disassembly view into an unresponsive state where I can't even scroll it, although I can still switch away from it.
