Sorry, I didn't mean it as a dig at JamVM and believed I had already mentioned this on list earlier. The problems I had (early this year -- as I say, I haven't had chance to try again yet) were related to firstly missing methods in Classpath (java.nio constructors for the input and output streams being used, something I believe is now fixed) and then memory problems with JamVM. It isn't so much a problem with JamVM, as the amount of memory used. findbugs uses a lot of memory, and JamVM, I guess, doesn't garbage-collect it efficiently enough to avoid running out (a problem I've also seen with one of my own applications). I repeatedly scaled up the memory given to JamVM, but failed to get a successful run of it with Classpath without running out. At 512mb, it caused a kernel OOM. It does work with smaller projects; it's a problem with large projects like Classpath, which has a huge number of classes (and even more now). -- Andrew :-) Please avoid sending me Microsoft Office (e.g. Word, PowerPoint) attachments.
