IcedTea-web: Memory leak - java side

[Efrat Lefeber]

Are all those patches in version 1.4? Are there any more patches
that haven't been released yet and I can install?

There was one where he mentioned the Java side, I think it was the same
one that did lazy initialization of objects on Java side.

The OOM problem when reloading pages was quite apparent, and I did have some patches with incremental memory freeing, I don't think I ever fully solved the problem. But there were a lot of patches that touched these things, the classes are all a blurred concept of PluginAppletFooClassThings to me right now without some fresher unfortunately :-).
