Absolutely. > Looking at your results, memory has significantly increased > somewhere and for large builds we were already causing OutOfMemory > errors. I'll be working on this and now have a self-contained testbed (and I invite others to use the tests on their systems to see whether they get different results). Getting memory consumption at least down to where it was with 1.7.1 is my goal. OTOH my clumsy method of measuring memory consumption (watching task manager or top) doesn't tell us the full story since it only shows the peak memory consumption and after a GC things may look differently inside of the VM.
