I just tried an experiment. I don't need to do any debugging in

NetBeans and it has a project opened (the last project I was
working on, I don't explicitly load the project), I can see the
java process that is NetBeans consume memory at a rate of just
under a megabyte a second (using 'top' in a Terminal window). The
memory toolbar in NetBeans does not reflect this memory usage.
After a several minutes the VMSIZE as reported by 'top' increases
to over a GB and the system response grinds to a stand still.
Are you sure? I tried this with JDK 5.0 _06 and NB 5.5beta (Mac OX
X 10.4.7 Intel) and apparently I couldn't reproduce (I waited a
couple of minutes after launch before measuring, since at startup
NB does various things, such as scanning the classpath - I believe
to build some index of the files - and also the subversion plugin
tries to connect to the repository and check the sync status). The
VSIZE for me stays put at about 1.33G - in any case I'll keep an
eye on it in the next days.
I'm using NetBeans 5.0 since 5.5 has the UI corruption issue. I'm
running on a Powerbook G4 1GHz 768MB.
I think the NetBeans UI must be active and the cursor should be
flashing in the editing area. When I flip another application to the
foreground the memory doesn't seem to climb much.
When I launched NetBeans a few minutes ago, after the classpath
scanning, RSIZE was around 170M and VSIZE was about 450M ... now
RSIZE is 247M and VSIZE is 658M and I have done nothing at all in
NetBeans... as I write this RSIZE has increased to 261M, VSIZE is now
671M. I haven't done anything in NeBeans other than drag the window
out of the way so I could see the 'top' output.
