Pharo Issue Tracker - Manuscript (Case [Issue]22284) Kernel

Manuscript Notification

	Vincent Blondeau reopened Case 22284: Freeze during startup and assigned it to Everyone: Bug in Kernel: 1. Pharo Image • You are subscribed to this case

If we decrease the priority of the forced process handling startup/shutdown, it also works (maxPriority - 1). We do not get why it works in this case.

That is because the only process allowed to run at maxPriority (Processor timingPriority) is the delay scheduler and only it. So, as this process is not selected to run by the VM, no other process will be selected to be launched and it'll result to a freeze of the image.

Therefore, a solution to the issue is to use Process timingPriority -1 instead of Process highestPriority in the version submitted before this PR (https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/1659) in the method SessionManager >> snapshot:andQuit:
