[Pellet-users] Pellet stalling / OutOfMemory exceptions during classification

In addition, we have another ontology that we are trying to classify,
and in this instance we have no problems with it loading (i.e. it loads
and classifies in a sensible time period).  However, when one wants do
any kind of operations involving individuals (e.g.
reasoner.getTypes(individual), or reasoner.getIndividuals()), it results
in an OutOfMemoryException after a good 30mins of processing.

Has there been any thoughts on why this may occur, or indeed to the
problem below? I can post up the ontology I mentioned if necessary.

Cheers

Rob
