Ok, "Garbage Collection" sounds reasonable, but I gave Java 7.5 GB heap space while it used only a few hundred megabytes. I've got no idea why it would run out of memory.
Do you really have so much free memory available? If you tell Java it should use 7.5GB heap space, it will use that, even if not available, and fail. I run Java with 4GB heap space (machine had more), but since other processes allocated memory, too, it did fail sometimes with similar symptoms. After I reduced the memory to 2.5 GB heap space, it runs fine. -- Thorsten Kukuk, Project Manager/Release Manager SLES SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg)
