Just got the version 5 upgrade. I am on Win XP SP1, 256 meg memory. Java version is

C:\Documents and Settings\Vern>java -version
java version "1.3.0"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.0)
Classic VM (build 1.3.0, J2RE 1.3.0 IBM build cn130-20020124 (JIT enabled: jitc)


Task Manager memory usage shows javaw's allocation growing constantly. This is while WDSC is running. When I got back to my machine, it was at 64meg (WDSC minimized), when I restored WDSC it jumped to 120meg and kept going. When I minimized WDSC again, down to 2meg, then grew very quickly (minutes) to 120meg, then a little while later down to 70meg or so, then grew again.

Is this normal? Is this garbage collection? I also had a message that virtual memory was running out - XP was adjusting it. Right now it says the commit charge is 952 meg with 399 meg committed.

TIA

Vern
