There is also a bug in the JDK1.2 (I reported it a while ago to
SUN, but they answered that I didn't describe it well enough;

If you open too many files without closing them (in our case:
we didn't release the filehandle to a flat database file),
you also get an 'Out of Memory'-error instead of a 'Too many
open files'-error (that would help a developer a lot more
in order to find his bug).
So we lost quite some time monitoring memory use and looking for
infinite loops, but in the end we discovered that there was an
