Processing large greyscale images, suddenly Select By Color is killing other Toolbox selection, or come to that menu, or keyboard (Shift B for instance) Is this a known issue?, is there an issues forum? Can I roll back to older versions anywhere ?
Can you post a link to the image and provide exact steps to illustrate the problem? Also which version of GIMP are you using?

So this is really a reply to @programmer_ceds and @rich2005

I think rich is on the money with threshold - I cant seem to get below 8 without it locking up - I guess a memory thing. 
I wont post the whole image but here is a clip which hopefully will deliver a clearer understanding of the image.

So the red circle contains 5 pixels that should be pushed outside the selection, but the yellow ellipse (although not clear here) contains pixels at between 0.7 - 0.9 grayscale that should be included in the selection. So I need to select at a threshold of 1.

The steps were as stated I open a greyscale image although I didnt mention it is a 16bit image "mostly black with white or at least black with lighter areas, and directly after loading with Select by Color I am clicking in the black area. So that defines a selection. And that's it, Gimp immediately becomes unresponsive."

As I said I intended to drop a fill into that area, blacking (RGB(0,0,0)) over the near black pixels, those in the yellow ellipse. And I did say that I have done this countless times, but thinking about it, not at this kind of a threshold.
 I guess that's the rub.

Perhaps there is another less hungry (if it is about memory) way of going about this. So I want to make all pixels less than 1 = 0.

Any suggestions welcome.
