What about a combination: Create a JUnit test in a separate suite and
add the suite to suites.All. Additionally, create an ant target that
runs the suite with a 16 MB heap. Then we get both the coverage and
the possibility to test the memory usage.

> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 10.3.3.0, 10.4.1.3, 10.5.0.0

> Currently the SQL length function materializes the entire lob into memory. In
> SQLBinary.getLength() we have
> public final int getLength() throws StandardException
> {
> if (stream != null) {
> if (streamValueLength != -1)
> return streamValueLength;
> }
> return (getBytes() == null) ? 0 : getBytes().length;
> }
> Which actually is doubly bad because we call getBytes twice and materialize
> it twice.
> It would be good to read the length from the stream if available and
> otherwise stream the value to get the length, rather than materializing it
> into memory.
> To reproduce, run the attached repro.
> java -Xmx16M LengthLargeLob
> It gives an out of memory exception
