Hello all,
due to this JVM bug: http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=4469299 I'm facing a number of java.lang.OutOfMemoryError in my shader code, coming from LWJGLShaderUtil.updateUniformLocation();
So I decided to minimize byteBuffer creation by simply referring to a shared byteBuffer allocated statically.
Here's the patch for LWJGLShaderUtil. It works very well and now the application does not crash anymore for OutOfMemoryError.
