Out of memory

When I set the content dir to my non-classical music, it gives a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space.
A bit strange, as I use a decent machine with 4GB of RAM in it

A quick strings | grep | wc -l of the cache file suggests that it quits after 50 or so albums. Sometimes it gets to 68, so it doesn't seem to be a fixed number.

If I set the content dir to my classical music, it runs fine with 900 or so "Albums".

If I set the content dir to a subdirectory of the non-classical stuff, it runs fine. The largest subdir I tested only had 25 albums in it though.

I deleted all cache files before starting the server.

The only change I made to the config file was to remove AlbumArtist from the albumSortTags, as its presence prevented the server from starting at all.

What can I do to help you track this down?

Sorry that you've had this problem. It's an infinite loop in the new code to merge multi-disc albums into a single album. There must be something in the tags for your non-classical albums that I wasn't expecting when I wrote the code.

Please can you run MinimServer 0.30 with the --trace option and attach the resulting log file here. This should narrow things down to the specific album that's causing the problem. You can add the --trace option by editing the minimserver.config file to add the line:
.options = --trace

On Mac OS X, the minimserver.config file is in your user name's Library/MinimServer folder. On Windows 7, it's in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\MinimServer\data. The log file is in the same folder as the config file.

Many thanks!
