Github user rpreissel commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/commons-compress/pull/11#issuecomment-197507339 This is a memory issue and from my point of view there is no simple way to test it with an unit test. I have tried to write an unit test and used ManagementFactory.getMemoryMXBean().getNonHeapMemoryUsage() to check the memory usage before and after creating an archive with many files. But there was no difference with the patch. But if I look at the process with system utils I see that the version without the patch requires many GB and the version with the patch only 100MB. Any ideas?
