I am not sure I understand what you are doing when you say:
Every X seconds I collect the available facts and call fireAllRules()
+
dispose(), **always within the same session**.
(emphasis is mine)
Compilation indeed uses more memory, but you can compile once and reuse
the kbase. Also, if you are calling dispose, I guess you are running
stateful sessions. Maybe you can give us a more detailed description of your
session/data/application lifecycle?

hi all,
I'm quite new to the drools rule engine and i've been using it for a
project where i need to filter events and execute actions accordingly.
I'm currently running a DRL file and creating a stateful session from it,
and then running 2/3 facts every time. Every X seconds I collect the
available facts and call fireAllRules() + dispose(), always within the same
session. The DRL file has circa 2160 rules declared (an external program is
producing them), and i'm using the "no-loop", "lock-on-active",
"activation-group" and "agenda-group" options on almost every one.
My main problem is that the software is consuming too much memory when it
loads the rules to the knowledge base variable, it reaches +300Mb which is
just not affordable in this project. Is there any way i can work around
this? I've tried setting some configuration properties but to no avail. What
techniques may i try in order to reduce memory load on drools startup? What
would be the best approach for dealing with so many rules?
Anything would help, thanks in advance,
_ miguel
