Because it needs 256MB! As an ignorant user, I found 5069 and around failed with out of memory errors after 1-6 hours, but 5074 can go at least a day or two with 256MB. Obvious changes tinkering with the configuration file does not seem to change this much. The position of the developers is that RAM is cheap (if you're not using a pentium 1 chipset!) and this is a matter for later optimisation. Memory allocation can be altered by a command line option on starting Java, but since I don't know what is in the latest start up scripts, you'd better check if you don't already know the syntax.
I am also struggling with 5074.
Here is my freenet.conf: ipAddress=www.gentilehome.com listenPort=27882 seedNodes=seednodes.ref outputBandwidthLimit=48000 storeSize=3G overloadHigh=0.6 overloadLow=0.4
I've got a fast net connection 7mbps downstream 1mbps upstream. I've got over 2GB in my store.
After a few hours of stability (6 or so), it stops sending/receiving significant amounts of data and the CPU sits at 100%. The memory sits at 150MB and I see these errors in the freenet.log

As per the default start-freenet.sh script, java is being launched with this switch: -Xmx128m
Soooo, what gives? Why can't it live within it's 128MB space?
