I am creating such a huge image in memory because they want to print the map
out at high resolution
I suppose you are using Printomatic, right?

My experience with huge print jobs is that printomatic is the real memory killer. I also had crashes when i.e. 10 pages full of text and graphics had to be printed.

If i recall correctly, POM cannot print 32 bit members/graphics at all but recalculates it into a 16 bit image under the hood. Give it a try and use a 16 bit image instead of that 32 bit one.

POM leeches not only huge amounts of memory, it is also not always willing to release the resources again. In the project I mentioned I also used *a lot* of unload() calls before and especially after the print job was startted.

Hope this helps,
Dirk.
