Proposed change to testsuite/build.sh to increase memory for

rachmato Mar 13, 2007 3:15 PM

The testsuite often fails during execution of the task "reports" with an out of memory error, and the fix is to rerun the reports task with ANT_OPTS=-Xmx512m or some similar higher memory value. The setting for ANT_OPTS appears in the build.sh script used to start the testsuite and is set to -Xmx256m.

The target reports does not always fail with the present setting, but it does happen fairly frequently.

Can we make this a permanent change, to say 512m?

Just to be clearer....i'm referring to the JBoss AS testsuite....

What's the size of TESTS-Testsuite.xml? If you reach 100MB, setting Xmx to a higher value will not help you anymore.

see http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBQA-620 for more infos.

The Xmx will help if he's getting OOME's. I believe Richard has confirmed that raising the Xmx fixes the problem.
