Memory problems with 3.40.0
Started having problems with ReadyAPI 3.40.0 after update to this version: Application shut down a few times without saving Cannot save the project: "Java heap space" error Complain while running...

mogranovitch JoostDG It's a known issue introduced in 3.40.0 , the 95% memory used Error is a false positive. A quick workaround is to increase the default Xms128m to have the same value as your Xmx.
i.e. :
-Xms1024m
-Xmx1024m
or
-Xms8000m
-Xmx8000m
depending on your available resources. Keep in mind that if you are running performance tests 2048m is the minimum amount recommended.
Sorry for the inconvenience, a patch version will be released shortly.

Thanks PaulV,
I got same issue today "More than 95% of the Java heap memory is being used. The test results may be impacted. It is recommended that you increase the value of the VM option -Xmx or -XX:MaxHeapSize in the file ReadyAPI.vmoptions.", the tool eat a lot of memory - cause another Apps can not runnning if I setup as below:
-Xms8000m
-Xmx8000mSo changed to:
-Xms1024m
-Xmx1024mIt is working ok, BUT we expected new patch version with the fixes! Thanks so much!
You don't have to use just these two values 8000m or 1024m. 1024m could be a bit too small, you can set the memory limits according to your resources: 2000m, 3000m, etc... . As long as Xmx and Xms are equal you should be fine.
Since I do not have API performance load test, only focus on functional tests, so change to:
-Xms2048m
-Xmx2048m.It is working without memory issue alert pop-up..., Thanks PaulV
