What to do when Squeak runs out of memory?

So, I've been working with a huge script, and I was scrolling down when scratch froze. I think Squeak ran out of memory.

The entire thing is unsaved. What do I do to get Squeak running normally again without loosing all my progress?

Did an error message appear, or is it just frozen? If its only frozen, there's nothing you can do, im afraid. But if there's an error message, if you click "proceed" then I think you might be able to save.

No, nothing. Just frozen.

That's too bad... from now on just save very frequently. I usually save every 20 minutes.
