Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2010-11-11 21:28:52 UTC

Stack trace irrelevant for diagnosis.

heapdump-431835.hprof (306Mb) has a bunch of String's. org.apache.lucene.search.FieldSortedHitQueue seems to be keeping a Comparators.readerCache, though it ought to be weak; maybe a WeakHashMap value -> key error, or maybe the heap dump just does not reflect a complete GC. form.ComponentInspector.testAction.previews looks like it's holding on to some components.

Comment 3 Tomas Pavek 2010-11-19 16:51:24 UTC

GUI Builder is hardly responsible for this, form.ComponentInspector.testAction.previews holds just one instance of a previewed form, overall of just marginal size.

This bug collects OOMEs from different areas, somebody should file separate bugs for the individual reports with attached heap dumps. Here's a quick analysis of the heap dumps:

* heapdump-430821.hprof - over 200,000 files and lots of objects from versioning (cvs). Might be something related to FS or VCS/CVS, or just extremely large project.

* heapdump-430831.hprof - 84% in char[], runs out of memory during parsing in css parser (there is a local variable ArrayList with retained size of 300MB)
* heapdump-430840.hprof - looks like css parser again
* heapdump-431535.hprof - 92% in char[], css parser

* heapdump-430922.hprof - not heap space but PermGen, hibernate support loading some class for JDBC connection (but don't know if it is the culprit)

* heapdump-431835.hprof - tens of MB in org.apache.lucene.search.FieldCache$StringIndex (commented by Jesse)

* heapdump-437533.hprof - almost 90MB in char[] created when opening project during some logging (held as local variable in org.netbeans.modules.project.ui.OpenProjectList.printMsg)

Comment 4 Petr Jiricka 2011-01-18 20:08:02 UTC

Thanks for the analysis, I filed separate bugs for each of these cases - see the bugs this depends on. Changing this to an umbrella task.

Comment 5 Petr Cyhelsky 2012-06-11 07:19:29 UTC

It seems all the blocking issues are resolved - closing the issue.
