http://statistics.netbeans.org/exceptions/exception.do?id=708601 Many o.n.m.html.editor.hints.css.CreateRuleInStylesheet/AddStylesheetLinkHintFix objects held via o.n.m.editor.hints.ParseErrorAnnotation ... 218k of instances, retained size 450M. I can possibly slightly decrease the instance sizes, but they are pretty minimal even now so I believe the main problem is just they should not be held the way they are now by the infrastructure.

Created attachment 161648 [details] stacktrace I was reviewing a git repository history. I clicked on "all revisions". It was my mistake, as I know it had too many revisions. However, NetBeans should at least give a warning message instead of eating all memory.
