JESS: (save-facts) and memory usage

[Gyhra, Norman (Student Assistant)]

Hello !


Is it "normal" that (save-facts) seems to
consume a huge amount of memory ?

I use the NT task manager to watch the memory usage
of my Jess program. It remains quite stable during the
processing of rules. I tested with a 10 meg fact file
that consumes about 50 megs of memory.

However, as soons as I write my fact base into a
file the usage jumps up to twice the value.

As I want to use much larger fact bases later on,
this behaviour might cause some serious memory problems.

Any way to get around that?
Thanks for any help.

Regards,
Norman
