OK Thanks for the information.
What we have observed that our JacORB client gets hang if we sent 40
MB data as a reply to query.
May be based on your explaination, as GIOP call can return virtually
unlimited data, this reply may overflow JVM buffer which uses JacORB.
Is it correct?


Thanks & Regards
Siddharth
