You are either asking the wrong question or you do not understand what you
are asking.

In your previous post, you mentioned a Knowledge Base of 100GB.
In this post you are talking about a rule set.
These are different things.
A Knowledge Base contains rules *and* facts and can indeed be quite large.
A rule set contains only rules. For a rule set to grow this much, it means
you have seriously misunderstand your problem. I would suggest you go back
to the drawing board.

Real-world example:
Rule set of about 400 rules.
Facts : In the order to 100.000.
Command line execution shows an approximate 400MB RAM consumption, meaning
with the JDK and all (not only Drools memory consumption).

So, unless you want to hear from someone more experienced than me, I'd
suggest you re-phrase your question by stating the exact problem you are
facing or anticipating.
