Is there anyway to encourage a ColdFusion server to run garbage collection during a long running, memory intensive process?
I have a process to create many, many reports. A single report is no big deal and does not even make a blip on the server. But the process needs to make hundreds and hundreds of them. The process just consumes more and more memory as each report is created and written to a file, until eventually the server fails. Is there anyway to control this so that the server can take a break and clean up resources consumed by already created reports before moving on. I've tried putting pauses in the loop with the sleep() function, using multiple threads, nothing seems to work.
