[oXygen-user] 3.0.1 Alpha FOP Transform for Large files fails

[Dan Caprioara]

Oxygen starts the FOP as an external process, specifying a maximum of 
400MB. If the physical memory is less than this value, the OS will swap 
out processes, and the entire machine will work very slow.

For large files I recommend to use the FOP from the command line. 
Breaking the document into multiple files and including them as external 
entities from a master file will make no difference. You can try to 
apply FOP individually over each file.

Unfortunately, we are not aware of the FOP memory/cpu performances. 
Please consult http://xml.apache.org for more information.
