Hi Jesse,
Actually I have posted this only after going through
the archives. That discussion was not conclusive.

There has been some related discussion. I summarized it in a blog entry:

http://blog.parthenoncomputing.com/xerces/archives/2005/05/memory_manageme.html


My Question is :
a)If we search for non-existent entries in a file why
the memory is increased using getElementsByTagName() ?
(I may not have the liberty to release the document
everytime.)

It certainly will be the first time since the node list pool is created. After that, a DOMNodeList still has to returned and therefore allocated (even if it is empty).


Regards,

Gareth



b)Its not a memory leak but memory in use. I want to
know the motive behind such alloation strategy ?
Thanks for your time.
