I'd concentrate on the Temp files to begin with... They're more likely
at the heart of the problem -- they give an explanation for why this is
only happening on Windoze...
Each open file descriptor is going to be consuming memory. As I recall,
the delete-on-exit function will also consume memory. How many temp
files are being created during the course of a build?
It appears that there are about 47 of the test* files, 35 of the
geronimo-deploymentUtil* files, and 31 package*.tmpdir directories
containing a varying number of files each. All together, there are 249
files and 469 directories created in temp as a result of this build attempt.
Around "LDAP Demo for Jetty", my build on Mac OSX is only using ~
60megs. By the end of the build, however, I'm using 90 out of 108 megs.
So, we don't have a lot of headroom. Quite possible that there's a
memory leak floating around...
