Given this information at the top of the jmap -heap output:

        Heap Configuration:
                ...
           PermSize         = 16777216 (16.0MB)
           MaxPermSize      = 67108864 (64.0MB)

Doesn't this mean that I can grow to 64M of PermGen space?

I do see the capacity of PermGen increase over time (with analogous
increases in the used field).

I'm wondering if I may be running into an OutOfMemoryError because I've run
out of available PermGen space, requiring changes to the heap generation
partitions and this re-partitioning requires so much time/effort that the
ergonomics factor is kicking in (as explained in section 5.2.2 of
http://java.sun.com/docs/hotspot/gc5.0/gc_tuning_5.html#0.0.0.0.Ergonomics%2
0in%20the%20throughput%20collector%7Coutline)?


However, the error message I am getting is: "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError:
Java heap space" rather than a "perm space" message.

Can this message be trusted? Or could this be a PermGen issue?

Thank you for your help,

Sharon French

Here is the failure. PermGen is getting exhausted.

Nix.
