Javaw.exe *32 climbs to 80Mb working memory then CPU returns to zero.

Wondering if bug in reading of cached queries.  How can I clear my cached 
queries to check?

Re-installing did not fix issue.

Delete .rest-client directory in your home. This directory holds the history.

Hurrah now it runs again :-)

I restored the urls.list file and started again and it worked - so probably 
some other issue than the historic urls

I am having the same issue. I deleted rest client history folder. Is there 
anything else I need to delete? I am using vmware view client to connect to my 
VPI. Also rest client 3.1 is working fine. 3.2 was working before yesterday.

We store all configuration and history in .rest-client dir inside the home 
directory. RESTClient depends on no other data.

I understand that I need to delete.rest-client dir inside the home directory. 
But Since I am using VPI, can't access the directory. Is there any way around 
this?  Can we have ability to choose same folder for the directory as the place 
 where we save the executable rest client jar file? I can run rest client 3.2 
on my personal pc and see that every time It creates the .rest-client folder in 
the directory same spot. Can we change this?

We don't have the option to change the .rest-client directory.

I can write a command line tool to delete .rest-client directory in your home 
dir. Will that be useful for you?

If you can provide that would be great. I can try and see if it works.

The tool is available here:

http://download.wiztools.org/rest-client/rest-client-history-rm-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

The tool needs to be run thus:

$ java -jar rest-client-history-rm-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar -y

(note the cli parameter -y at the end)

If the tool is able to delete the history data, the tool will silently quit (no 
feedback). If the tool is not able to find the data, then it will report the 
same.

Let me know if this helps.

Since few people are facing this issue, I think I need to think of a permanent 
solution for this. One could be determining the size of history dynamically 
(right now last 20 history data is stored in memory), or other solution could 
be a cli parameter to NOT load history during startup (this could have 
implications on the Mac build).

I am planning to reduce the history list to 15 from current 30. This will save 
the tool from unexpected OutOfMemory. I'm being defensive, but this seems to be 
the quick solution.

I regularly get the following error, because somehow my history.xml file 
exists, but becomes completely blank.  Deleting history.xml fixes the problem.  
But otherwise the splash screen just comes up, but with no further action.

Are you using the latest 3.2.2 version? I had some defensive checks for 
validating this. Also can you provide the full stack trace.
