Re: [aspectj-users] LTW is using high heap memory
|
Hi,
First, make sure you are on a recent AspectJ - you don't mention which
version. As per
http://www.eclipse.org/aspectj/doc/released/README-167.html (see the
memory graphs in there) - you want to be on something later than
1.6.6, preferably 1.6.12.
Memory will spike at startup as 'stuff' is woven but over time it will
reduce as many things are only held by weak/soft refs - how those end
up being collected, well you are at the mercy of how your chosen JVM
is going to treat them, so it may take a number of GCs before the
memory is recovered.
Right now the only types permanently held onto by the weaver (so not
linked by weak/soft refs) are aspects and types affected by ITDs, are
you doing ITDs or just advice?
There is a work item to have a weaver go to 'sleep' on disk and
reinflate when required, but I haven't gotten around to doing that
work yet.
cheers,
Andy
