which I was able to run with the following settings
{noformat}
runMergeTest("pdf_sample_1-100pages", defaultMemory, 1 * MEG);
runMergeTest("pdf_sample_1-200pages", defaultMemory, 1 * MEG);
runMergeTest("pdf_sample_1-300pages", defaultMemory, 2 * MEG);
runMergeTest("pdf_sample_1-400pages", defaultMemory, 4 * MEG);
{noformat}
Of course this is a quick and dirty implementation/test to verify that closing
only will bring the requirements down.

> We wanted to address one more merge issue in

> We need to merge a large number of small files. We use mixed mode, memory
> and disk for cache. Initially, we would often get "Maximum allowed scratch
> file memory exceeded.", unless we turned off the check by passing "-1" to
> org.apache.pdfbox.io.MemoryUsageSetting#MemoryUsageSetting. I believe, this
> is what the users that opened PDFBOX-3721 where running into.
> Our research indicates that the core issue with the memory model is that
> instead of sharing a single cache, it breaks it up into equal sized fixed
> partitions based on the number of input + output files being merged. This
> means that each partition must be big enough to hold the final output file.
> When 400 1-page files are merged, this creates 401 partitions, but each of
> which needs to be big enough to hold the final 400 pages. Even worse, the
> merge algorithm needs to keep all files open until the end.
> Given this, near the end of the merge, we're actually caching 400 x 1-page
> input files, and 1 x 400-page output file, or 801 pages.
> However, with the partitioned cache, we need to declare room for 401 x
> 400-pages, or 160,400 pages in total when specifying "maxStorageBytes". This
> would be a very high number, usually in GIGs.
>
> Given the current limitation that we need to keep all the input files open
> until the output file is written (HUGE), we came up with 2 options. (See
> PDFBOX-4182)
>
> 1. Good: Split the cache in ½, give ½ to the output file, and segment the
> other ½ across the input files. (Still keeping them open until then end).
> 2. Better: Dynamically allocate in 16 page (64K) chunks from memory or disk
> on demand, release cache as documents are closed after merge. This is our
> current implementation till PDFBOX-3999, PDFBOX-4003 and PDFBOX-4004 are
> addressed.
>
> We would like to submit our current implementation as a Patch to 2.0.10 and
> 3.0.0, unless this is already addressed.

> Thank you
