"halt: no free methods; cannot compact."

I'm seeing this message over and over in stdout or stderr. I couldn't
gain control of the image, kill -1 didn't work, had to kill -9. Any
ideas?

Interesting. Never seen this lock up before. I would run under gdb, or attach to the process when it locks up, and then try and take a stack trace via printCallStack(). You can use -breakonerror to avoid the VM exiting and waiting for you to attach gdb.
