I have an application written in jython which has to process a number of records. It runs fine until it gets to about 666 records (and maybe that's a sign), and then, it's performance and responsiveness goes down the toilet. It looks like it's running out of memory and is being forced to use extended memory, but I do not know enough about the language to figure out where this is happening. It will eventually finish the task, but the window stops responding, and it ends up taking several hours (as opposed to several minutes as it should). I really just wish I had a tool for polling the amount of memory Jython was using at any given moment.
Does anyone have any strategy or advice for me? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
