AW: This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.

Hallo,

Thanks for your answer. You are right, it is an out of memory error. The
memory of the process goes up to 2 GB (which is the upper bound for a
Process on a win 32 machine), and than throws an out of memory error. The
files, which I want to checkout have an amount of 400MB (without the .svn
files). During the merge the memory is always increasing and never
decreasing.
Is there a memory leak in the svn client?

Thanks in advance

Klaus

Sounds like it's running out of memory. The error message could be better,
but 
basically there is not much that Subversion can do about the fact. Try 
watching how much memory is allocated to the process, and if that is going 
too high, try increasing swap or, better, RAM.

There could be a place where we aren't freeing the memory as early as we 
can.  I thought several developers chased most of these down... perhaps 
we missed on though.

Can you generate a complete reproduction recipe?  Starting from creating a 
repository, to chewing up lots of memory?  It doesn't have to fail, but 
as long as we can see the memory grow unbounded, that will be sufficient.  
It would greatly help to have such a recipe when chasing down this 
problem.

Thanks!
