Hi.  Thanks for your time.

I am using PDF box and am having trouble creating large PDFS (50,000+ pages).  
The heap size of the process is capped, but with the temp file active (which I 
can see being created) I didn't think this would matter.

Here is what I am doing in a very condensed form:
        MEMORY_SETTING = MemoryUsageSetting.setupTempFileOnly();
        PDDocument pdf = new PDDocument(MEMORY_SETTING);
        
        for (...) {
                String text = [generate page text]
                PDPage page = new PDPage(PDRectangle.LETTER);
                try (PDPageContentStream contentStream = new 
PDPageContentStream(doc, page, PDPageContentStream.AppendMode.OVERWRITE, 
false)) {
                        
                        contentStream.endText();
                        doc.addPage(page);
        }

When I do a heap dump, I see over 100 MG of memory taken by 42,000 instances of 
ScratchFileBuffer.currentPage

Is there something I am going wrong here?  Or is this a bug?  It seems like I 
must be doing something wrong / forgetting to do something, since this is a 
problem in 2 and 3-RC1.

Thanks again,
