The layout engine of 0.90alpha1 works differently. It's a bit difficult to compare the two versions. But I'd have to say the same optimization is currently not possible in 0.90/Trunk unless we extend the breaking algorithm to support a first/best fit strategy so the objects can be released early (i

You know what? Is the patch already in the new Alpha release? Cause if it is then it's not worth my time applying it to FOP-0.20.2. I've already tried my stylesheet with the alpha version and I still have the memory issue. On Thursday 08 December 2005 10:17 pm, Andreas L Delmelle wrote: > On Dec
