Re: [Quickfix-developers] out of memory error

[Oren M. <or...@qu...>]

It is probably coming from the operating system/JVM.  I'm guessing 
during high periods of traffic, too much memory is being allocated that 
doesn't have an opportunity to get garbage collected.  Try increasing 
the memory available to the JVM with the -Xmx parameter, (e.g. 
-Xmx512m).  By default heap size for the JVM is generally only 64MB in 
client mode, and 128MB in server mode.
