The exact point at which a java program hits OOM is pretty random and it isn't always fair to blame the chunk triggering the exception.
callMethodThatAllocatesNearlyAllMemory(); callMethodThatAllocatesABitOfMemory(); and the second one hits OOM, but is not to blame. Anyway, your base problem seems to be that you are trying to index a 20Mb chunk of text in one go and, despite appearing to have plenty of memory, failing. What happens with different -Xmx values? Are you sure they are taking effect? What does code like this: Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime(); long maxMemory = rt.maxMemory() / 1024 / 1024; long totalMemory = rt.totalMemory() / 1024 / 1024; long freeMemory = rt.freeMemory() / 1024 / 1024; say before/after loading a 10Mb file, 15Mb file, 20Mb file etc? Have you run it with a memory profiler? Verbose GC? Googled diagnosing java memory problems? What happens when you don't index the 20Mb in one chunk? Only index the 20Mb in one chunk, not the individual lines? Does it work when you are adding a doc but not when you are updating? The other way round? Fail on all 20Mb files or just some? If some, what's the difference between them? Good luck. Have a nice weekend. -- Ian.
