Yes, but .......

Subject:

Yes, but .......

Yes....in a way. I am clear that Java cannot recycle notes objects in the same way as Normal java objects....you must recycle yourself. So when I traverse a big bunch of documents, I do it like this

while (doc != null) {

// do whatever to doc

nextdoc = dc.getNextDocument();
doc.recycle();
doc = nextdoc;
}

but beyond that, its all guesswork. Some people say recyle the session, others say no, never do that.

Some people say do this

Runtime.getRuntime().gc();

at the beginning and end of your code, some say no never do that.

When you read what Balaban writes about recycling...and I have read all his many articles on the subject....its all very informative .... BUT never quite tells you specifically how to deal with thing at a Code level. Its all very interesting to him, I guess, but specifics about coding....you never get them.

Can you shed any light on the subject ?
