Hi!

We are currently evaluating batikserver+batik 1.6 
(http://www.gocept.com/open_source_software/BatikServer) to save the time the 
virtual machine needs to start up when converting SVGs.

Unfortunately the memory usage of this service is rather evil:

(each line covers the relevant memory columns of ps avx)

1st request: 3    55 246168 32392
2nd request: 3    55 245912 35136
3rd request: 3    55 245912 36108

somehow the mem is never really freed and slowly (but constantly).

When doing this after a night without any requests it consumed up to 60 MB 
(last column) and this is simply not acceptable and proved (to me at 
least :P) that it is really never freed.

Somehow the garbage collection doesn't really work. The garbage collection 
only starts to clean the objects when the server is stopped.
Even when i lowered the allowed memory for java so that it can just handle one 
request it did one request and then failed with an out of memory request.

We have seen this behaviour when reloading squiggle again and again too so 
this must somehow be either a java or a batik problem.

Does anybody have a hint on what is going on? Is this a batik bug? Or are 
there any switches for java which could help?

Kind regards,

 Andreas Streichardt
