More than 125cc in an Orbital creates what looks like bad laminar flow. See it with dummy film and the lid off.
Also, if the sheet is not clicking around, it is stuck to the bottom. So I knock the tray during a 70cc pre-wash and add in the developer on top of the wash once the film is well and truly free.
Next best in a light-leaky bathroom is stand development in a small tupperware food container, under a box, and on a tray (for agitation).
