I am running my app on 10G memory with 75000 objects/facts (taking about 600 MB heap), and running about 75 complex rules across these facts. One solution is to increase the heap, but is there anything else that I can do (other than adding drools properties as mentioned in my earlier email). Also, is it possible to know how much time each rule took to execute on a set of facts, when we apply a bunch of rules together in a stateless session? This would help me debug such issues easily when new rules are added to my application.

Have you had any progress here? There is no "out of the box" way to get 
the information you need.
