If you've monitored both the dev and the user list, you should already have some points to start from. Some things to look at are objects which are too fat and object instances which hang around in memory long after they are no longer needed. Some samples from the maintenance branch: - links cause areas for the the whole line they are in to hang in memory until the page sequence FO they are in is discarded - markers cause the page sequence FO they are in to stay until FOP finishes - WordArea inherits a whole bunch of unnecessary data fields from Area. - Area itself is already rather fat, it may make sense to have a leaner object for example for the common case of borderless areas. The question is: fixing any of the problems enumerated above is a real lot of work. Giving that the maintenance code will be abandoned anyway, will the work ever pay off?
