This is another way of Java saying "you ran out of heap space". As less and less room is available, the GC kicks in more often, freeing less each time. Before the very last byte of memory is gone, Java may declare defeat. That's why it's taking so long, and you simply need a larger heap in whatever is throwing this error. -- Sean Owen | Director, Data Science | London
