Jessica Seastrom commented on ACCUMULO-2774:
--------------------------------------------
Java opts set via MAVEN_OPTS are not passed to the surefire-plugin when tests
execute. The heap size for the surefire-plugin can be set in the pom.xml file
using:
<configuration>
<argLine>-Xmx<some_value></argLine>
</configuration>
-Xmx768 works. (Via testing the acceptable value seems to be 512 < Xmx <= 768.
At least one occurence was on MacOS where Java was Apple Java 1.6. Another way
to solve this issue is to set JAVA_HOME to a JAVA version with a larger config
heapsize, but this patch ensures that the heap size is adequate for the test
regardless of these low level details.
> Update pom to ensure enough memory for tests

> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: test
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
> Assignee: Jessica Seastrom
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.6.1, 1.7.0
>
>
> On some systems JRE defaults don't provide enough heap to deal with all of
> our tests. Namely,
> org.apache.accumulo.core.security.crypto.BlockedIOStreamTest requires a fair
> bit of space (in the 768MB - 1GB range).
> The amount provided by default varies by JRE and by system specs. Our pom
> should ensure that by default our tests ask for as much as they'll need.
