Openfire up to and including version 3.6.4 (and looks like 3.7.0 too) suffers from a memory leak in its PEP component. If your Openfire server is crashing with OutOfMemoryExceptions, you might be having this problem.

As a workaround, you can disable PEP, by adding the system property xmpp.pep.enabled and setting it to false.

Spark is constantly in development by a team of community contributors.
