Paolo Castagna commented on JENA-44:
------------------------------------

For people wanting to test behaviour and performances of external sorting ARQ and TDB snapshots patched are available here:
http://oss.talisplatform.com/content/repositories/talis-snapshots/com/hp/hpl/jena/arq/2.8.8-JENA_44-SNAPSHOT/
http://oss.talisplatform.com/content/repositories/talis-snapshots/com/hp/hpl/jena/tdb/0.8.10-JENA_44-SNAPSHOT/
Let us know if you have issue with those.

> In QueryIterSort, the sorting of the contents of an Iterator<Binding> is done in memory, using Arrays.sort. This can be problematic where the set to be sorted is large. A possible solution could be to use an external, disk-backed algorithm. A hybrid approach may be better, whereby we attempt the in-memory sort, but when the number of bindings encountered goes over a certain number, resort to the disk-backed variant.
