Philippe Marschall commented on JCR-1644:
-----------------------------------------
I am absolutely positive that it was a stack overflow:
- the exception was java.lang.StackOverflowError
- there was a stack trace in the log that was more than a dozen screens
recursively in org.apache.jackrabbit.core.xml.NamespaceContext.getURI
> make NamespaceContext#getPrefix(java.lang.String) iterative instead of
> recursive

> Currently the method
> org.apache.jackrabbit.core.xml.NamespaceContext#getPrefix(java.lang.String)
> uses recursion. For very large XML files (50 MB Magnolia website exports)
> this causes a stack overflow. The method can easily be rewritten using
> iteration.
