#41 Java heap space in sync large folder

[Ronaldo Reis-Jr.]

Hi,

I try to use fullsync and I like very much.

This is faster than unison and more easy to use than rsync.

But when I try to synchronize my Mail folder (1.3 GB
with about 120.000 files) it fail.

I received this message:

An exception occured:
Java heap space
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

My system:

Debian Linux Testing

Sun-Java 1.5

fullsync 0.9.1 installed from jar package

CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.60GHz

512 MB ram
cache size : 2048 KB

It is possible to sync large folders with big
quantities of little files?

I tried out fullsync und Win XP today and had the same
problem. When I started fullsync with a batchfile like this:

set LIBPATH=lib
set LOCALCLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%
for %%i in (%LIBPATH%\*.jar) do call lcp.bat %%i
java -Xmx512M -classpath %LOCALCLASSPATH%
net.sourceforge.fullsync.Main

A second batchfile called lcp.sh is needed:
set LOCALCLASSPATH=%1;%LOCALCLASSPATH%

If you exchange the set commands with exports it should work
under Debian.

Cheers,
Stefan
