Memory leak Soap UI?

Hello,

We are trying to run the following scenario:

Excel datasource (10.000 records)
For every row I transfer the data to a properties file
7 webservice operations that use the properties file for input and output
Textfile to write results to
Datasource loop

We manage to get 565 records in the database before we hit an Out of memory error.

Is this a known issue and is there a way around this problem?
Kind regards,

    Ok thanks!

    If/when you can, please send me the project and excel anyway, since there obviously is some issue that should be sorted out.. 

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    We do have the same kind of problem using Soap UI pro 2.02 on win XP, but without even running a test case.

    Here are the operations we perform and the associated memory usage:

    Launching SoapUI and opening the project we use: 79716K
    Creating a new empty test case:  190104K (While loading the cached wsdl)
    Creating another test case: 214312K
    Adding a request: 218716K


    Any idea where this could come from?

    Hi,

    this looks "ok" to me, soapUI consumes a fair amount of memory when creating new items and especially when loading complex WSDLs. Since it is up to the JVM to reclaim unused memory it may take some time for deleting/closing objects to have an effect. Are you getting any out-of-memory errors?

    regards!
