    Hi!

    hmm.. was this a complex LoadTest? Are there many scripts involved?

    Anyhow, trying adding the following to your .vmoptions file in the soapUI-Pro\bin folder:

    -XX:MaxPermSize=128m

    (or add this to the java options in the soapui-pro bat/sh file if that is how you are running it)

    Does that help?

    regards,

    /Ole

    That was only time it crashed. I'll try your settings and update this post if SOAPUI throws permgen error again.

    Thanks.
