This is a limitation left-over from before Magma was able to support
long transactions. Generally, small transactions are better anyway,
especially if you're hosting a model accessed by multiple users. Huge
commits will create performance issues.
If you get that error, take a look at the "path" argument of the call
to #maValueGraphNode:index:using:with:path:with: . That is the path
to the current object being serialized.

http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2985 - what is meant with an "uncached #root” and how can one avoid it? I.e. I should have the application in a transaction all the time.
That would be one way. Then, your app could signal #commitAndBegin.

You can do that, but keep in mind that once objects are referenced
indirectly from the referenced root, they'll remain in memory. You
can stubOut: objects so that they and their references will be GC'd,
and you can also reference from MagmaCollections, which only keep a
"page" of their contents in memory at a time.
The best solution can only be known with more context about your app..
