Re: Parsing large JSON responses
Hi richie, Thanks for the reply. I'm currently running the latest version of ReadyAPI, 3.10.1. When I run the groovy script that's supposed to parse the JSON response, this is the resource consumption that task managers shows: As soon as I start running the test, the RAM jumps to about 4gb and then it kind of stops around that value, 6gb. CPU consumption alternates between 10-20%. Funny thing is, after that empty error window appears the resource consumption doesn't die down, it still remains at those max values. Should I try to increase the heap size? Not sure exactly what values I should use though. My machine has a max of 16gb RAM installed.Parsing large JSON responses
Hi there, I have some API requests that return a very large JSON response (about 8mb/ 400k lines) and I'm having trouble parsing them. So I'm using a Groovy script to try and parse the response but when I do this the ReadyApi tool freezes completely and there's nothing else I can do other than just shut it down. I've looked around here and I found this topic that mentioned something about increasing the resources ReadyAPI is using and I've tried that. Apparently my heap size was already at Xmx7992m, by default (my machine has a total of 16gb of RAM). Not sure if that's the issue. I've also tried to use the Gson java library that supposedly helps with the parsing of such large files but still no use. ReadyAPI freezes and after a few minutes of inactivity I receive an error that's not even telling me anything. Again at that point the app just freezes and I can't close the error window or check the tool's error logs. I'm sure there are others who have run into this type of issue. How did you manage to resolve them? Thanks
