[JIRA] (JENKINS-16010) Plugin consumes too much memory

[mist...@redhat.com (JIRA)]

Mickael Istria created JENKINS-16010 Plugin consumes too much memory Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: current Assignee: Ognjen Bubalo Components: jacoco Created: 03/Dec/12 7:17 AM Description: Imported from GitHub: https://github.com/jenkinsci/jacoco-plugin/issues/12 Report by Greg Temchenko ("soid" on GitHub) I broke down my Jenkins trying to use this plugin. It turned out that plugin stores the entire coverage in XML format in build.xml file in jenkins ( Unknown macro: {Jenkins} /jobs/ Unknown macro: {Project} /builds/ Unknown macro: {Build} /build.xml). Boolean values about covered/uncovered lines stored there as XML tags with indentation for readability <boolean>true</boolean> Thus my 600K code coverage .exec bin file consumed more than 700M on the hard disk for the build.xml. This is a half of the problem. Further Jenkins keeps all builds information including mentioned above build.xml in RAM. That's how I've caught OutOfMemory exceptions in Jenkins and got it broken. And a comment from Jesse Glick ("jglick") For what it’s worth Kohsuke & I recently did some minor memory usage fixes in the Cobertura plugin, and I experimented with more: https://github.com/jenkinsci/cobertura-plugin/compare/master...trove This issue makes the plugin forbidden to installation on JBoss Jenkins instance.
