[3rd post] Memory growth in version 0.20.5

2004-06-09 Thread Mark C. Allman 




Is there a way to manage FOP's memory usage? I'm not talking about increasing the JVM memory and stack space, I mean the amount of memory FOP allocates as a function of job size. What we're experiencing is an almost linear growth in memory demand for the reports we produce.

Any and all suggestions, ideas, etc., would be helpful. Please ask questions if that'd help.

Check *all* points mentioned in
 http://xml.apache.org/fop/running.html#memory
Tables in particular cause a linearly increasing memory consumption due
to a sort of a memory leak. If you are adventurous, there is an
unreleased fix for this in the repository.
