Hi, Krishna.> The problem is internally, Win32ShellFolderManager2.java,
the function
“isFileSystemRoot” is called, which lists the contents of all the root
drives, in addition to including them. It also includes the hidden
files. For each file present, it is wrapped with a “Win32ShellFolder2”
object. So, for each query, it will list the files in the drives, and
throws them away, which is leading to both memory consumption as well as
slow performance.
If for each query we list the files in the drive and *throws* all of
them away, then why(and where) we have a memory leak and as a result OOM.
