When I tried to serialize an inline (inner) class with XStream from a servlet running on JBoss 4.0.1sp1 the servlet kept throwing a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError exception.

Everythign worked fine when I made the the class its own file.

Make it a static nested class. If it is just an inner class, you have an implicit pointer to enclosing object - in this case servlet. Servlet in turn has a references to servlet context, which in turn can have reference to entire JBoss container. And when you try to serialize entire JBoss, OOME seems like a valid error
