I have been running sitemaps for a couple sites. One is around 10000 lines the other is close to 20000. My problem is that the sitemap tool will start very quickly until it reaches a certain number let’s say 3400? The it gets very bogged down and smonetimes stops all together. When it does this it also fails several lines. Not enough memory, and connect time are the big errors? I am running on windows 2000. I know you can increase java memory but I cannot find where I this edition.
Do you have any ideas what may be happening? Is it the site structure or just not enough memory to run the sitemap generator?
thanks.

It is memory and it can be found on your status bar, far right when visiting the sitemap generation software page. The memory increase is not something you do in my application (sitemap generator), but instead in the Java Control Panel.
10,000 should not be a problem if you increase the memory.
I’m working on a new version that does not depend on the amount of memory your computer has – I have a ways to go, but I’ll get there
Best regards,
Jim.
