Just to "one up" you. :) We have several docs that are > 20M source. If we run them as a single page sequence, they run out of mem. If we break them up into multiple page sequences, they _usually_ work.
So, as Jean-François suggests, using multiple page-sequences is a good start. -Lou Jean-François El Fouly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 10/16/2008 08:23 AM Please respond to fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org To fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org cc Subject Re: Memory issues Richard Forrester a écrit : > > Hello, > > I have FOP 0.94 and I am running into some issues with Memory.

The whole thing fits easily with a full AS and a rather large management web app in 1 Gb. And all the memory we need is released at the end. So my best guess is: you should try to make your document more manageable for FOP by breaking it in severa fo:page-sequence (chapters, sections, whatever makes sense in your business). Between page-sequences, many resources are released. Anyhow, it helped us make it (we had such problems in the beginning).
