> Subject: [iText-questions] High memory allocation with PdfPTable
>
>
> Hi
>
> I have tested your
> http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/tutorial/objects/tables/pdfptable
> /index.html#memory
> and analyzed the memory allocation during the build with NuMega from
> Compuware. The result shows that 205 MB are used and about
> 575 thousand
> objects are temporarily created for the result, a pdf with a
> size of 53kb.
> The method BidiLine() used about 182 MB of memory.
>
>
>
> I then tried the older Table class and did the same loop with
> the result
> that 22 MB of memory were allocated and 610 thousand objects created.
>
>
> I'm using itext-2.0.0.jar.
>
>
> Should it be like this? Or is it a bug in PdfPTable? Or
> shouldn't itext be
> used as a server side solution? I'm planning to use this on a
> web site with
> many users creating pdf's but it will make the server running
> very slow. The
> server must garbage collect immediately after a pdf is created.
