             Summary: Installing subsystem with large number of constituents 
takes forever or gives out of memory
                 Key: ARIES-1459
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-1459
             Project: Aries
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Subsystem
    Affects Versions: subsystem-2.0.6
            Reporter: David Bosschaert


Installing a large subsystem that contains a lot of bundles can cause the 
resolution phase to run for hours and sometimes causes out of memory.

I think this is cause by the fact that all the bundles inside the subsystem are 
attempted to be resolved in one shot. When you have 200+ bundles that gives an 
enormous resolution problem space.

In a plain OSGi framework such a scenario can be helped by installing bundles 
in stages, making life easier for the resolver. 

Maybe subsystems can support this too. We could use the 'start-order' directive 
on the Subsystem-Content header to guide resolution and only resolve bundles on 
the current start-order as we progress through those.
