Out of memory errors

[John Smith]

I am having a nightmare with memory problems first it was heap space, I
fixed the leaks in our code and now it fails in the compiler thread:

Exception in thread "CompilerThread1" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: requested
310608 bytes for Chunk::
new. Out of swap space?

The machine was started with -Xmx512m and as you can see it is no where near
that limit. The machine is windows 2003 server with java verson is :
java version "1.5.0_05"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_05-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_05-b05, mixed mode, sharing)

The machine has 3gb of memory and at the time it fails task manager says it
is using just 350m

Any help would be gratefully appreciated

Thanks

Jon

I presume you are using Windows of some sort.

Go into settings | control panel | system | advanced | performance
options | change

and make sure you have a decently fat swapfile defined. After you
have changed that you might want to run PageDefrag from
http://sysinternals.com/ntw2k/information.shtml
to defrag it.
