Description:
Hi,

I am from Sun Microsystems and we are using XALAN for XSL processing. Our
application is apparently observing good heap size increase. Using JProbe
analysis tool, I find couple of objects collecting in xsl processing after a request 
is completed - 

org.apache.xpath.axes.AxesWalker ->
org.apache.xml.dtm.ref.DTMDefaultBaseTraversers$RootTraverser ->
org.apache.xml.dtm.ref.dom2dt.DOM2DTM -> Vector -> Object[] ->
AttrImpl/ElementImpl etc. 

JProbe shows them as loitering objects created after we include a checkpoint to 
monitor objects created only in the request. The result of above extra objects is that 
heap size seems to keep growing as the load increases and in a period of time the 
process size reached the max. 

Each request in testing tends to serve search.xml:

search.xml (contains couple of tags that are expanded to obtain data)
search.xsl (which is translated to output html)

I am not sure what part of our code would result in that. We are using following code 
for XSL transformation - 

      Transformer transformer = null;
      if (xmlDoc == null) {
        throw new XSLProcessingException("XSLProcessor: xmlDoc null");
      }
      if (outputStream == null)
        throw new XSLProcessingException("XSLProcessor: outputStream null");

      try {
        transformer = _templates.newTransformer();
      } catch (TransformerConfigurationException tce) {
        throw new XSLProcessingException("XSLProcessor: transformer could not be
created : "
                                         +tce.getMessage());
      }

      if (transformer == null) {
        throw new XSLProcessingException("XSLProcessor: _transformer null");
      }

      try {
        transformer.transform( new DOMSource(xmlDoc),
                               new StreamResult(outputStream));
      } catch (TransformerException te) {
        throw new XSLProcessingException("XSLProcessor: transform failed ("
                                         +te.getMessage() + ")");
      }
    }
  
Please let me know if more information is required. It's quite urgent for us as our 
application is released and the problem is reported by a customer.
