SoapUI window freezes on request submission

SoapUI 5.0.0, Red Hat Linux
When I click the Submit button on the Request window, the progress bar starts to move, but then stops. At that point, the whole SoapUI window becomes frozen/non-responsive. I cannot manipulate the Request window. I cannot even close the SoapUI window. At that point, if I cover the SoapUI window with another window, and then uncover the SoapUI window, the previously-covered area of the SoapUI window is completely gray.
I must use a Linux kill command to terminate the SoapUI process.
The SoapUI log does not give any indication of an error.

      BhuvaneshMani, you may want to consider starting your own thread and not restarting a 3+ year old thread. Either way, there could be a number of contributing factors for this. Have you adjusted your memory options? Are they within specs for your machine? 

      Whenever I see similar occurences, it is usually due to significantly large requests can require much larger memory allotments than the defaults.

        Sorry for reopening, but i thought it would be wiser to reuse existing post instead of creating new one as i see there is no solution provided for original one. Yes, i tried increasing the memory and i am sending one simple service request to return a json response.
