[jacorb-developer] java.lang.OutOfMemoryError silently caught by JacORB

[Pierskalla, Eric]

I have an application where occasionally large data items are transferred.  Approximately 20-30 MB.  With a JRE setting of -Xmx 400M, JacORB will raise and silently catch, an OutOfMemoryError.  Some time later a CORBA timeout is thrown, so that the user knows something went wrong, but since the uncaught exception handler in the application did not catch the initial error, we do not automatically know to instruct the user to increase the -Xmx setting, which corrects the problem.
I looked through the orb.properties file for a setting that may affect this, but found none.
A verbose output dump follows.
Any recommendations?
