Re: URGENT:::::: OUT OF MEMORY

Hi
The images alone take more than half a Gigabyte. I doubt you will
find *any* FO processor which will work on this amount of data in
a reasonable amount of time.
You can try to resort to picewise generation of several PDF and try
to get one of the general PDF tools to merge them without running
out of memory. Don't expect Acrobat Reader to open the resulting
file on a Windows machine with less than 2G memory.
I believe commercial FO processors and Acrobat both scale better than you 
think.

Using Ibex (from http://www.xmlpdf.com/ibex.html), and 3000 different 350K 
jpeg files, and a simple FO file which puts one image per page like this:

  fo:block
   fo:external-graphic src=url('.\GUID-11.jpg')/
  /fo:block
  fo:block
   fo:external-graphic src=url('.\GUID-12.jpg')/
  /fo:block
It takes 9 minutes (with Java 1.4) to create the PDF file, which just over 1 
GB in size.  Memory used is less than 256 MB.  The .NET version of Ibex 
takes only 5 minutes.

Acrobat will load the PDF and page through it using less than 160 K.
Both Ibex and Acrobat don't need to hold more than one image in memory at a 
time, so don't need to use lots of RAM.  Even if  you had ten images on each 
page, the document creation and viewing process would still scale very well.

URGENT:::::: OUT OF MEMORY

2005-02-11 Thread Chandrasekhar Sanku 








Hi All,



 I have a problem with memory. 



 I need to generate a document with 3000
images (0.2 - 0.5 MB each image approximately) and my intermediate XML file
size is 3MB (approx).

I am trying to generate the document in microsoft windows XP
machine(p4) having 1GB RAM.



 When I try to generate the document with
my xsl, its giving out of memory problem.



 Any suggestions please





Thanks  Regards,

Chandrasekhar Sanku.
