Summary: PS2: THE DIG: Random freezes

Initial Comment:
After playing for a couple of hours, the game can freeze seamingly randomly. Memory leakage? It happened to me a few times. Cursor stucks, nothing responds, music hangs repeating the last second.

Unfortunatelly I did not pay to much attention when it happened, but the two of the times I can recall:
1) Going from Nexus down the ramp to the power generator thingy, just when leaving the Nexus scene
2) A few seconds after entering the Nexus.


- ALWAYS after playing for a long time.
- Never during cutscene or conversation.


(The Nexus seams to be a pretty "heavy" scene, in parts of it the framerate drops quite a bit.)


Version 0.9.1 for the PS2. English version of The Dig. PAL PS2, (the last "fat" PS2 version with built in IR eye), running ScummVM and game from hard drive.
Starting ScummVM from uLaunchElf 4.12, started from HD Advance 2.1.
