[aspectj-users] Garbage collector behavior

[Mathieu LEMAIRE <mlemaire@xxxxxxx>]

I'm implementing a framework to profile our program execution, that is, 
memory consumptions, durations...
I use aspectJ (LTW mode) to instrumentate my classes.

Here is my problem..
I got memory issues when using aspectJ, comparing to a mode where I 
instrumentate my classes directly in the code (aspectJ is completely 
removed from this mode). Using aspectJ, memory consumptions of my 
program are much higher than without using it (eg 120Mo > 70Mo). Also 
profiling garbage collections, it seems that the GC collects much more 
when aspectJ is off (eg 4.5s > 2.3s).

Do you have any clue for that to happen ?
thanx !
