no, & no.  I do use 4 Spaces each of which is 200x200.  I derive
the spaces from Discrete2d.

I am on a fast sparc 5 with about 65M of mem.

not too much different except I have 4 subswarms & 4 spaces:

on to another question:
I have a base class (bug) and a class that inherits the base (heatbug)
bug has a data element "Name" that I would like to monitor with a 
probe on the heatbug.  I only seem to be able to view the elements in the
probe that are in that instances class.  I am using the button callback
create probe message as implemented in the heatbug example.

 I tried to do this but no luck:

in heatbug createBegin:
 [probeMap addProbe: [probeLibrary getProbeForVariable: "Name"
                   inClass: [super class]]];
                                                         ^^^^^

I also tried to overide Object2d.makeProbeAtX:
 [probeDisplayManager createProbeDisplayFor: [super obj]];
                                                                                
         ^^^^^^    ^

thanks (I'll try to keep silent for a little while)
