Glad the increase memory has fixed the problem.

Just a thought - is there no way to reduce the size of your test plan, for
example by extracting any variable information into external files and
combining some samplers? 6.5MB seems huge, and it will impact JMeter at
runtime as well as design time.

[We still need to fix the problem if possible.]

Subject: RE: JMeter not saving test!


I'm not sure it was OOM error but I've been doing this long 
enough to know
the signs. I didn't want to post the logs here because it annoys me when
people post anything over 30K like large attachments to email lists. I
usually just throw the file on my web site and post the link 
but I'm at work
and don't have access to my site. I wanted to. :(

I changed the vm args to include -Xms256M and -Xmx256M and it 
seems to have
solved a lot of problems, including this one.
I'll post the pertinent stack trace errors if they pop up 
again. Off the top
of my head they seemed to hover around, what sounded like, some 
kind of GUI
factory object.
thx,
Mike

Did you get any errors in the jmeter.log? Can you please post them here?

Yes, for such a big test plan, OOM is definitely a possiblity. 
Touch the 
ARGS in bin/jmeter[.bat] to increase the available memory. There's 
comments in bin/jmeter explaining which arguments to touch at.
