Re: [Php-java-bridge-users] Memory problems on big size params

Hi Davide,

I could not reproduce this problem. I've created a
class which passes a 100MB byte array to java,
retrieves it and compares the result. The algorithm
requires at least 500MB heap, but there's no memory
leak.

Can you please open a problem report (please use
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=117793&atid=679233)
and attach the code to reproduce this memory leak at
the end of the ticket?

Well, if you bind your data to a class, the data will
not be released until the VM runs out of memory. This
isn't a bug but a Java feature.

No. But note that sending large binary data is not as
efficient as you might think. XML is a ASCII protocol,
to that your byte array is 4/3 times bigger than it
needs to be.

50MB for the original data, +67MB+50MB (arg) +50MB
(result) + 67MB (response) = 284MB. So 384 MB heap
should be enough.
