Gadora Glitch
If you kill a Gadora while one of its shots is on-screen, the game has a chance of crashing or lagging between 4.25 and 8.5 seconds later (256-511 frames). Going through the door will prevent the crash, but pausing or using X-Ray will merely delay it. The cause of the crash is explained here.
