Out of memory error

I was able to update in mid-March. Now I'm getting out of memory errors:

larry$ s3_website push

This is happening on MacOSX 10.13.4. I'm not sure if a system update or a Java update is to blame here.

larry$ java -version
java version "1.8.0_25"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_25-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.25-b02, mixed mode)

Any thoughts? Thanks.

Found a workaround.

_JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xmx8g s3_website push

Allocate a whipping 8GB, and it works. (6GB didn't work, I haven't tried with 7 yet.)

SOLVED. Turn off logging and delete the logs/ folder. Even if you set ignore_on_server: logs/*, it still spiders the folder (which you can verify using the --verbose option). When you get 700K logs in there, things go to #3|| in a hand basket pretty quick. It would be nice if ignore_on_server actually did ignore things, but whatever.

Leaving this open in case someone else runs across it.
