contents The concept of cracking refers to the tendency of a fluid distribution to "split'', once it abandons the equilibrium. In this manuscript we develop a general formalism to describe the occurrence of cracking within a dissipative fluid distribution, in comoving coordinates. The role of dissipative processes in the occurrence of cracking is brought out. Next, we relate the occurrence of cracking with the concept of complexity for self-gravitating objects defined in [1-3]. More specifically we relate the occurrence of cracking with the condition of the vanishing of the scalar function intended to measure the complexity of the fluid distribution (the complexity factor). We also relate the occurrence of cracking with the specific mode of leaving the equilibrium. Thus, we prove that leaving the equilibrium in either, the homologous (H), or the quasi--homologous regime (QH), prevents the occurrence of cracking. Also, it is shown that imposing the condition of vanishing complexity factor alone, (independently of the mode of leaving the equilibrium) prevents the occurrence of cracking in the non-dissipative geodesic case, and in the non-dissipative isotropic case. These results bring out further the relevance of the complexity factor and its related definition of complexity, in the study of self-gravitating systems.
