main memory limit reached message and restarting the application

I'm running the free version of RM Studio on a linux machine (and adding cloud when the capacity is insufficient).



When I'm running largish data sets (about 2M records), after a few runs I get the message: Main Memory Limit Reached, with an encouragement to upgrade.



Yet, if I close the RM application and restart, the process runs just fine.



What's happening here? What can I do to prevent it?

    Hi John,

    this may happen when your process requires an amount of memory which is very close to your maximum memory limit. After a few runs Java may not clean up every entity in memory causing or memory controller to launch the upgrade notification. You may try to force a garbage collection by using the "Free Memory" operator as the first operator of your process.

    Cheers,
    Helge
