Hi,
I just downloaded YourKit and I'm trying to apply to track a memory leak in a very large system. I'm able to take and save memory snapshots, but when I try to load, YourKit goes out of memory. I've given 768MB heap size in the .ini file (under Win XP). Loading a snapshot of about 2-300MB works. However, trying to compare two such snapshots goes out of memory. Also, trying to load a 600MB snapshot break as well.
Since YourKit is not able to work from disk, but needs to load everything in memory, would it be possible to get info on the snapshot file format, so that I could write my own programs to work against it?
Best,
Boris

Please try to use latest EAP build (http://www.yourkit.com/eap/). This build uses hard disk to keep internal data.
