You'll need to help us a bit here, by creating a test of some sort. "I have 100 rules with 1B JoinLeftNode" doesn't give us much to go on.

The problem mentioned earlier was related to windows, which I don't think you are using - or you'd have said so.

Also can you tell us what version you are using? Could you maybe try the 5..5.x branch which has a lot of fixes in it (you'll need to build it with maven):
https://github.com/droolsjbpm/drools/tree/5.5.x

Thanks again. I have tried Sequential mode, but somehow my Java based class that I use for function calls no longer receives them.  Perhaps there is an error occurring before the call to my class in the "then" section of the rule that is not presenting itself in my logs.  Either that or I don't understand sequential mode's limitations well enough.  I'll try it one more time and report back on that as well.

If you need to start each session with a clean slate: yes, dispose is
preferable.

Only if you can run it in "sequential mode" - see Expert, 3.3.7.1.
Sequential Mode
