Hi folks. I wasn't aware of the class SparseLargeTable but it seems it has two important instances "SparseLargeTable allInstances size -> 2"

They are the class side variables #DecimalProperty and #GeneralCategory in Unicode.

Actually,

(Unicode classPool at: 'GeneralCategory') size� -> 917632

(Unicode classPool at: 'DecimalProperty') size -> 917632

So...collections of almost 1 million elements.

Now a couple of questions:

1) Is this normal/expected?�� In my calculus both arrays are like 3mb of memory

2) If I don't use UTF and I send an encoding as parameter in the VM (different from UTF), do I need this class side variables?


Thanks and forgive my ignorance in this field...I just get the alarm while doing some memory analysis for a paper.
