I think it's something to do with my use of Task.class

it has 2 classes inheriting task.class that run at startup to speed up
opening by doing a couple of things via another process.

I changed some things around and eventually stopped the problem.
I'm not 100% sure what the cause was. i suspect a task was not filling a
collection properly.

Thank you for suggestions.
