GC Overhead Limit Exceeded Out Of Memory Error In JDBC

I have encountered this error when i was trying to insert a big list of object in to database , using jdbc . The list size was approximately 100k . One way to resolve this error to increase your memory size . I double checked my code and found that i have not closed the PreparedStatement Object in my DAO class .

So to solve this issue , if you encounter while using JDBC , just call close method on your PreparedStatement object , after you finished your work on that , and you might get rid of this error . Please Post Comments and Suggestions !!!
