Hi,
I wonder weither you can easily read a 10000 rows table. Even in a pdf form. 
Probably you should crunch your source file in multiple subtables.
Other engines than FOP could be have similar limitations... Beginning with 
human reader;)

Regards,
Tcho

Objet : Re: OutOfMemoryError by large tables: Alternative solution?

I would like to answer this question now by saying, "Alt-design". 
However, I cannot - yet.  The layout work has just begun, and is aiming 
initially at a Java 2D solution.  When that is complete, unless someone cares 
to work in parallel on PDF rendering from the Java 2D representation, that PDF 
rendering work will have to follow.  The initial version will require Java 
1.4.2, a serious drawback for many, and may move forward from there if the text 
layout facilities improve in
1.5 and its sub-releases.

Alt-design starts page layout as soon as an fo:flow is encountered, and a page 
is completed as soon as enough of the flow has been read to fill that page.

Obviously, forward references cannot be resolved until the reference is 
resolved in the course of layout (e.g. Page n of m), but the existing solution 
of caching the incomplete page to disk will apply in alt-design.

Anyone who wishes to contribute to the development of alt-design would be most 
welcome.  Experience has already shown that ideas from alt-design can be very 
fruitfully applied to the main line of development.  In saying this I have no 
desire to distract those, especially those new and productive committers, who 
are dedicated to HEAD development.

I mention this here because of the ongoing concern about memory usage.

Peter
