Did you try this: ANT_OPTS=-Xmx500m

I also have in an old email that the LANG variable can have an effect, we now have ours set to en_US.UTF-8.

We run a pretty big suite of tests and we used to have a lot of problems with memory running on a dual processor server with 2 gig of memory, but it's ok now, and I think the above things are what solved it for us. -- Lisa

I have a project which contains 12 WebTests, each WebTest contains approximately 50-60 steps. I can only run 4 of the WebTests at a time. Anything more and I get an out of memory. Each WebTest seems to use about .1 GB of memory when it runs, the memory usage never goes down once each WebTest completes. Eventually, it just locks up the machine then returns out of memory. I have 2 GB of memory on the machine.

WebTest is run from an Ant script which runs java on org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher, fork=true, maxmemory=1024m.

WebTest: build 1453

Ant: 1.6.5 (also tried 1.7.0)

I am including the WebTest taskdef only once as was suggested in eariler discussions. I am using the xml results output. Any ideas?
