  ****************************************************************
  When a program contains a large number of large structured
  records, displaying these fields in the Variables view can
  take a lot of time, and some variables might even time out
  when trying to retrieve their value due to the processing of
  all the other variables that came before.
  

Problem conclusion

• The amount of calculations has been significantly reduced in
  these types of applications, causing the variables to
  display much quicker.
  

Temporary fix
