OutOfMemoryError in current Trunk

[Chris Bowditch]

Fellow Devs,

I have been doing a little bit of testing with the current Trunk code 
and observed that I can generate an OutOfMemoryError simply by 
submitting the same 2 page document to FOP to render to Postscript over 
and over again. After just 2,900 renderings FOP dies with 
OutOfMemoryError. I think it is safe to assume that the memory leak 
exists in the current 0.94 branch also. I am keen to avoid releasing FOP 
whilst the code contains such a problem.

If anyone is interested I can send you the FO file and test harness code 
I use to repeatidly generate PS off list.

Hopefully at some point I will have time to profile FOP and figure out 
where the source of the memory leak is, but right now I don't have any 
more time, so this e-mail is just FYI.
