XOM API for Processing XML with Java

[Elliotte Rusty Harold <elharo AT metalab.unc.edu>]

Just in case anybody thought optimizing or measuring memory in Java 
was easy, it might be interesting to note that when XOM's encoding 
test is run by itself, all 15 tests fail with out of memory errors. 
When it's run as part of the complete test suite (after 140 or so 
other tests) it runs just fine.

Anyone care to explain that one? Maybe when it's run by itself the 
JIT grabs just a little too much memory? When it's run after the 
other tests, the JIT is finished?  I'm damned if I can explain this.
