Description _ rkubacki 2004-11-11 09:18:23 UTC 
Build from Nov 10, JDK1.5.0.

org.netbeans.modules.vcscore.cache.impl.VcsCacheFile$VcsPersistentData
has field of type java.io.File that refers to
netbeans.cmd.cache file. These objects are often
big as they keep absolute path to these files and
have a lot of duplicates. 

For my project that is stored in
/usr/local/home/radim/fakeNetbeans every File
object retains at least 160 bytes (path ending
with CVS/netbeans.cmd.cache, array, String and
File overhead).
Comment 1 Martin Entlicher 2004-11-11 10:19:25 UTC 
This is being reimplemented into 4.1.
Comment 2 _ pkuzel 2004-12-21 15:23:31 UTC 
Redesigned cache does not keep any io.File.
