Hi,
I also saw my application slowing down with the number of inserted objects.
I am using the ODMG layer.
I have an application which has to insert different sets into different
tables; each set is in its own file.
Each time after inserting a set of objects I set every known reference to
null.
I called Runtime.getRuntime().runFinalization() as well as System.gc();
after this I closed and reopened the database connection.
So I think I shold have started with the same amount of memory as before.
In spie of this, (Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory() -
Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory()) grew every time.
I have tried to stop the application and start new every new set; this is
less memory-consuming.
But even more interesting: the insert of the14th set (150000 objects) took
only 8 minutes - compared to 40 minutes before!
However, it should not be like this, should it?
Any ideas what to do within my application?
Thanks, Birgitta
