Hiya folks at the ranch.
I have a problem that is baffling me...
firstnameList is an ArrayList<
String>() object.
The above serialised array firstNamesArray is read in from a file. It is 105735 elements in size. When I convert it to an ArrayList object, it mysteriously drops down to 87268 strings in the list.
Plenty of JVM memory left over... I can create as many ArrayList objects of this 87268 String capacity but can't seem to create more than that. I need to incorporate up to 1,555,000 Strings in the list.
Any ideas what might be going on here?
