There was a bug in the GC that I fixed a few revs back.
I know you're using rev 1713, but, is it possible that
you installed a new boot file and did not install and
update the ikarus executable?
The GC bug had exactly the same symptoms you describe,
and I did trigger it with (make-vector 1000000) every
time. I did track a bug in the gc, fixed it, and the
symptoms did go away. There might be another close by
but I need to get to it.
I can't reproduce this.
