Regarding message posted: 27/Oct/12 by me.
I still have the issue. but not as frequently as before.
It defiantly have something related with "memory release" or allocation.❓
No i dont think its texture packs that cause this. because i only use the vanilla textures. nothing else.
For information:
I tested about 15 minutes on snapshot 12w42b, and could NOT recreate the issue. weird..
Update:
Very weird, somehow i cant recreate the issue in 1.4.2, so maybe a java issue.
I have reinstalled java 1.7.0u9, (used tar.gz instead of rpm), manually updated lwjgl (2.8.4)), changed the "driver" and "device" options in /etc/openal/alsoft.conf, and added the following command line options to java "-XX:+UseG1GC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=100". i'll test more tomorrow to confirm that the issue has been resolved.
Tested with optifine 1.4.2, did not solve the issue.
However:
Added some additional debug info that is displayed.
The messages are printed to console right after a freeze.
when debug is activated in Optifine.
Tried downgrading java to version 1.7.0_u7, did not fix the problem.
will try to update ljwgl. and give feedback if that solves the problem.
Update: it did not.

No, this IS Vanilla Minecraft, NOT modded minecraft, i do NOT have any plugins installed when i experience this issue.
I use the 100% standard Minecraft downloaded from Minecraft.net when this issue appears.
However, i DID try to add unofficial plugins (Optifine) to resolve the issue, without success.
