Kristian Waagan commented on DERBY-3732:
----------------------------------------
I don't have any details, but before you changed the Blob size in the test, I
tried working with a 48 M Blob. It worked with Java SE 6, but garbage
collection "went crazy" - i.e. a lot of time was being spent on gc and I think
I saw like 12 000 collections or something. This happened during the client
test.
I tried to debug it quickly, but besides from noticing lots of rather small
byte arrays I couldn't find anything. I was unable to trace the source of these
arras during the little time I spent on the investigation.
A few "random ramblings":
How big is your page cache?
Also, unless you're already doing this, maybe it would make sense to run the
client and the server in different JVM to better monitor the heap usage?
And what about the ant / junit things? Do they use much memory?

> Key: DERBY-3732
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3732
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 10.3.3.0, 10.4.1.3, 10.5.0.0
> Reporter: Kathey Marsden
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: derby-3732_diff.txt, derby-3732_proto_diff.txt,

> LengthThruBlob.java

>
> 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
> Caused by: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
