Hello, Thanks for your answer! Good to know, that there are known problems.
I already fork the junit tests. I even have parted the tests into three parts, because of earlier challenges. Memory eater is also junitreport (especially for 2200 tests) etc., all the XSLT stuff needs a lot of memory and of course Tasks like jar. I hopefully (the build is running in the moment I write this) solved the problem by using a 64Bit Java on a 64Bit Windows machine and increasing the memory. This is of course no solution, but it will probably work. So I have to wait for Ant 1.7.2 or create one out of the trunk...

Ant 1.7.1 has a few classloader leaks that have been plugged in trunk - one affected <junit>[1] - so you could try a trunk build of Ant to see whether this helps. I'd first try to fork the junit tests into a new VM so the memory used by the tests themselves is not used by Ant's VM and gets reclaimed once the tests are done.
