I have a BMP bean on which I call finders that may return a very large number of rows from the db. My application is running out of memory and I am suspicious that it is because of the number of BMP beans being held in memory. Moving to commit option C made no difference. The bean is marked as ejb.transaction="Required". Could someone explain to me what s gongon. Thanks. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4117528#...
