Hi Leonardo,
Thank you very much for your fast response!
I mentioned why I re-added the same rules within the issue-description.
It is something like a simulation of lots of rule changes. We are
building an application where rules will be created programmatically.
Rules will often change.
For me - it should be the same, whether I replace a rule with a DRL
that is in fact different from the original one, or with the same DRL.
Espacially when I do NOT change the DRL, the memory consumed by the KB
should not increase! But in fact it does ... at least if the rules
have lots of conditions.
To give an example:
I loaded 500 rules and used 64 MB heapsize. After I had loaded all the
rules the first time, the heap consumption was 21 MB. Aber the second
load, the heap consumption was 23 MB. It increased about 2 MB on each
interation. The application crashed on the 27th iterattion due to
OutOfMemory: heap size. Even a forced garbage collection during the
iterations could not help. That means: It seems that there is a small
memory leak.

This problem has nothing to do with rule sessions! Caching the
KnowledgeBase is exactly what we intend to do! And we want to keep
this KB in memory for a long period of time (maybe some weeks) and to
modify it continously. That is why I wanted to test, how Drools
behaves when rules often change. For this test case it is not relevant
how much rule sessions have been created, is it?
Kind regards

Hi Pentarakis,
I had a quick look at your issue. I couldn't understand why you're re-adding
the same rules to your KB.
* Now, I redo this and add the same 100 rules again to the KnowledgeBase
(2nd run). And so on.*
I think that a better approach is to cache your knowledge base and get a
*new
*stateless or stateful session, whenever you need to run your rules. There's
no need to re add the same rules to an existing KB before a run.
Hope that helps.
Leonardo.

Hi!
I created a new issue some days ago. I'm new to the jboss community and
therefore not sure whether I did it correctly. It seems like no one has
found it yet.
Could somebody have a look at it and could provide me feedback?
