Several users have reported memory issues. We're creating this issue to collect information, reports and other evidence. Please attach relevant files and leave comments on your experiences. Thanks!

Current status:

• We're investigating about this issue, but we're lacking evidence of a real leak in Magnolia 3.5 when used with an external database at the moment. (see comments below)
• Magnolia 3.0 must not be used with jackrabbit 1.3 but with the delivered 1.0 version
• There have been too many architectural changes in 3.5 to backport the fixes to the 3.0 branch
• The following definitely helps:
  • Using an external database such as MySQL
  • Using Magnolia 3.5.x (and Jackrabbit 1.3.x)
• If you're experiencing OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space, you need to increase the -XX:MaxPermSize JVM setting.
• If you're still having memory issues after applying the above advices, please report them here with the following information:
  • Operating system:
  • Java version:
  • Container (tomcat, jetty, ...) and version:
  • Precise JVM settings (JAVA_OPTS, CATALINA_OPTS, ...)
  • How is your container started:
  • Is there any specific operation that triggers your memory issues?
  • Any stacktraces or relevant log files (in attachment, with your name in the filename, please)
