slave abending on svn checkout

[Russ Tremain]

has anyone seen the below exception when running a slave build over ssh?

it only happens during the initial checkout. It is very reproducible.

is the entire log being kept in memory or something?

this is with jenkins 1.399.

thanks for any help...

[Sami Tikka]

There seems to be something like that going on. I also had SVN
checkouts fail on one Mac slave. After I added -Xmx2G on the slave
startup options, the problem went away.

thanks Sami, that solved the problem for me as well.

Others please note that the JVM options appear under the node Configure screen under [Advanced...]
