[jira] Commented: (MCLEAN-32) Out of Memory Error cleaning target directory with *large* number of sub-directories

["Vincent Siveton (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCLEAN-32?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=137878#action_137878 ] 

Vincent Siveton commented on MCLEAN-32:
---------------------------------------

I created a dir in target with 100 sub dirs in 3 levels so 100 * 100 *100 sub dirs. The plugin is able to clean the target. with MAVEN_OPTS=-Xms256m -Xmx256m 
So what is your large number of sub dir? Could you send us a test case with the env to reproduce it?

> running mvn clean on a target directory with a *large* number of sub directories causes an OutOfMemoryError.  The plexus DirectoryScanner seems to be the major culprit from the stacktrace.
