Default Waveforms not showing when recording

I have experienced this bug twice since I have upgraded from Pro Tools 8 to 10 HD on Mac.

Occasionally on big projects with lots going on, the waveforms will not show on the tracks I am recording on. Instead, they look like the blocks view until you stop recording. Once you stop, the waveforms appear. Restarting the session fixes it.

Anybody else see this?

I'm positive this happens any time you are low on RAM on your computer or in a session. The fix is to minimize your RAM usage by printing instruments etc.
