The dynamical instability of motions is studied numerically for the triplets of stars and galaxies. The models of equal-mass components which are in rest initially, are investigated. The divergence of initially near by trajectories close to exponential one is observed in the configurational as well as the phase space. The characteristic time of such divergenee is less for the configurations which are initially hierarchical. The presence of significant dark matter distributed over the whole volume of system speeds up the rate of stochastisation considerably.
