Hi Chris
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.
If there is anything special about that file, you could always post
it, but I'll try to see if I can reproduce with a simple FO without
special features. If I don't succeed, I might ask you to post your
code as well.
Did you, by any chance, noticed a similar effect with other formats
(which would indicate the leak is localized in the fotree or layout-
code)?
Cheers
Andreas
