Description Andrey Loskutov CLA 2005-02-02 12:24:14 EST
As long time user ;) of first IBM WTP contribution, then of Milestone 2 from WTP 
I saw always the very big problem with WTP/Structured Editors (for HTML and JSP) 
- they have (multiple?) memory leaks, particularly on copy/paste and search/
replace operations. After long time editing jsp's Eclipse memory consumption 
constantly increases and does not decrease after closing jsp editors. The "same" 
kind of operations with Java editor doesn't causes such strong memory usage.

I have read about similar bug 82608, but in our JSP's we don't use any tag's so 
the memory problem should be still there.

Is it also possible to add some extra test cases which could trace memory usage 
after continuous find/replace and copy/paste actions in WTP editors, and also 
before/after continuous open/close jsp editors?

I'm using both Eclipse 3.0 and 3.1 with initial IBM distribution and with WTP 
M2, with JDK 1.4.2 on WinXp.

I'm assuming fixed with these other JSP memory fixes.

Marking as verified as I know this issue is fixed (or correctly categorized).
If, as originator, you disagree or still see, please re-open, or open a new bug. 

Thanks very much for reporting and helping make our JSP editing better.

This is part of a mass update to close out all stale WTP defects already verified by the reporter but awaiting closure by the assignee.  If you feel this defect was closed inappropriately, please reopen.

Thanks, John Lanuti
