Hi,
I currently have the problem that my system is running out of
memeory when
processing my xslt. I have set the max memory to 526MB (over
the 512 I
have) in a vain attempt to get the xsl-processor to use every ounce of
memory. But it is still keeling over at the point when I
need to work on
about 40,000+ tags.
[snip]
The whole final file should only be around the 6MB mark, and
I'm creating it
in 1/2 a gig of ram, so I have a couple of questions.
1) Why does it run out of memory if the file sizes are 1/64
of max memory?
Because the processor needs to build the XPath tree into memory, and objects
used in the three take up more space that tags in a file; ok, it may not *have
to* build the whole tree into memory, but most, if not all, processors do).
Still, that shouldn't be a problem, if the document is ~6MB. Do you use
xsl:sort, or generate RTFs in your stylesheet?
2) Is there a way to generate the file in a more memory
efficient way??
STX <http://stx.sourceforge.net/>, or write your own SAX filter--XSLT works for
trasformations like the one mentioned above, but it might not be the best
hammer.
