Thanks Suresh for reply,
Actually I have different Database for each user and if the user do continuous "change user login" operation though its not very usual case in real life but for testing purpose, then its necessary to close the database of previous user and open the database
of new user.
One problem which I am facing is, after I shutdown the previous user's database, its not releasing the complete memory. I will just give you brief description of the steps I am following to close the database,
1> Close all the statements and prepared statements.
2> Shutdown the database

Can you please let me know, whether there should be something more that I should do?

Hi Amit,

If you are just closing the connections, some of the memory used by
the database internal structures will not be released,for example memory used by the page cache will not be released; default size of cache is 1000 pages, if cache is full, it can take up 32MB if all pages are 32K or 4MB if page size is 4K.

If you really want to release all the memory used by a derby database then you need to shutdown the database. If you are frequently connecting back to the database, shutting down the database is not a
good idea. It will impact the performance of u'r application .
First Connection that comes after the shutdown will
need to boot the database and also , it will need to reread the
data from the disk into the cache if your application is reading the same data that was in the cache before the shutdown.


Thanks

Hello,
I am using derby for my desktop application. We have our complete application in java and one problem which we are facing is, after doing login and logout operation for five to six time it shows out of memory exception. When I used some profiler, I found out that the maximum memory is getting used in execute() method of derby. Though after each logout I close the database and before closing it I close all the statements and
PreparedStatements create during the login.
I think there are live pointer remaining after the database get closed pointing to some raw data and result sets. Can anyone please let me know whatz the best practice to make all the pointer point to null, created internally to database.

Thanks in Advance.
