Dan Fabulich updated SUREFIRE-465:
----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: Future
Perhaps more plausible might be to fork a process on a per-package basis.
> Add numeric option for forkmode param
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: SUREFIRE-465
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-465
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: process forking
> Reporter: Eric Smalling
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: Future
>
>
> PermGen memory becomes very full for large sets of junits. So much so that
> unless I turn on <forkmode>pertest</forkmode> I have to up my MaxPermGen to
> over 300m (we have 2600+ tests)
> Since that slows the tests to a crawl, and since using that much perm space
> causes problems with virtual memory paging I'd like to see if an option to
> fork on every n-th test could be added.
> ie: <forkmode>100</forkmode> would create a new fork for every 100 tests.
> I'll dl the source and see if i can submit a patch here too.
