Jukka Zitting commented on TIKA-636:
------------------------------------

As a related point, see TIKA-416 for a solution that can be used to prevent an 
OOM caused by a parsing process from wreaking havoc in your JVM. Instead of 
reducing memory consumption, TIKA-416 sandboxes the parser to a separate JVM 
process where it can safely fail with OOM or other errors.

> I am using Tika-core-0.9 jar and poi 3.2-Final jar and poi-3.7 jars for 
> parsing the documents. But while parsing 3MB docx it is using 500 MB of RAM 
> space which is too high resulting in OOM in the application.
> Do I have to tweak in at some place for reducing down the memory consumption.
