Fairly new to drools here but we are using it on a standalone application to do some batch processing. The application is spring based and single-threaded. I am using a single stateful session that I build around 15,000 rules dynamically on process startup.
The application then receives a message to process a set of records through the rules and write out the results. To do this I insert the data as facts and run a query to get the results. I must then remove all the facts that I created and also all the object that where created by the rules so that the session can be used for the next batch of records. This works fine and meets our performance requirements. However, after a time the process fails and upon investigation this is due to the perm gen space filling up with classes. The heap itself is fine and steady by the number of classes in the JVM keeps growing. These classes are all DefaultConsequenceInvokerGenerated classes appear to be created when my new facts are inserted. This is running on a 1.7 oracle JVM and I've tried -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled but nothing helps. So is this expected behaviour? Is there an issue with how I am using drools? Any help much appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Drools-Perm-gen-grows-constantly-tp4026673.html Sent from the Drools: User forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ rules-users mailing list rules-users@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users
