Hi Guys, Any progress on this issue at all.
Forrest is looking to a new release soon, and we have an issue that depends on this one currently scheduled to be fixed before the release.

Thanks

> I'm currently looking into a memory leak issue at Apache Forrest.  Forrest's
> site currently needs to be built with -Xmx128m because of this.  I believe the
> issue is originated at Cocoon's LinkRewriterTransformer or XMLFileModule.
> A memory profiler shows lots (30MB+) of DOM DocumentImpls (150+ objects), which
> get referenced by XMLFileModule.DocumentHelper.  Their URIs are linkmap-xxx.
> LinkRewriterTransformer#createTransformedLink(String) uses a InputModuleHelper,
> which seems to reference a XMLFileModule.
>   ...
>   newLink = (String) modHelper.getAttribute(this.objectModel,
>                      ^^^^^^^^^
>   ...
> The XMLFileModule keeps the visited documents in a map, which is where they
> build up.
> Just for testing, I changed XMLFileModule#getDocumentHelper(Configuration) from
>   this.documents.put(src, new DocumentHelper(reload, cache, src, this));
> to
>   return new DocumentHelper(reload, cache, src, this);
> Thus, a new DocumentHelper is created every time, instead of caching them.  The
> result: No more memory problems, Apache Forrest's site builds again with -Xmx32.
