Hello PDI fans!
I get sporadic JVM errors when launching Spoon on a Windows machine. The message states "Could not create Java Virtual Machine". I'm using PDI-CE 4.4 stable with the Spoon.bat statement set PENTAHO_DI_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Xmx900m".
When the JVM error occurs, I decrease the Xmx size (usually down to 512M) until Spoon opens. The problem is an instance of Spoon will work fine for several job processes. Close Spoon and it will fail to open on the next instance with the very same Xmx size! My question for the brilliant group of PDI developers on the forum is, how do I release (or clear) memory usage after Spoon closes because it's obvious that memory is being held in these cases?
Thanks in advance
