If you got time, it may already be helpful if you provide us with your code base. You could also try to run BaseX with less memory assigned (e.g. 128m) and send us the stack trace, which will be triggered via the debug flag (-d) as soon as RAM is exhausted, or you could run BaseX with Java profiling arguments (e.g. -Xrunhprof:cpu=sample,depth=15) and provide us with the output. I can’t promise anything, though.

Christian,

The point is that I don't know how to provide a self-contained query.

The only strategy I could propose, to provide a self-contained query isolating the memory management problem, is really too time-consuming : I can imagine a binary-chop search, comparing the memory management of the two BaseX beta versions, over a very complex algorithm, to isolate the problem. This is probably a week work, I can't spend such a time.

Do you have a better strategy to find the problem ?

Thanks. Could you provide us with a self-contained query?
