Significant increase of memory usage during a test

Hi,

While running a load test in soapUI I noticed a significant increase in memory usage. Starting at 138Mb used, it will go as high as 989Mb (both values are shown in the memory log). The test case that I use consists of 60 test steps, and I run the test for 100 threads with only 1 run per thread. I already disabled the history option.

Does anyone know what the cause of the increase?

Cheers,
Ed

    Hi,

    I removed the GROOVY scripts from the test case and I still have the out-of-memory problem.

    Some additional info. My testcase consists of the following teststeps:
    1 datasource
    1 datagen (with a script that uses only a return value)
    45 test requests
    6 Property transfer
    3 delays
    5 conditional goto's

    Any suggestion how to get around the out-of-memory problem is more then welcome.....

    Cheers,
    D.
