We have a system component which uses hsqldb and hibernate (specifically, we use hsqldb 1.8.0.7 and hibernate 3.6.10). The component has several threads which constantly reads and writes from and to various tables in the database.
Lately, we have seen a corruption in the DB: two fields from a row for table A was inserted into table B. One curious fact is that table B requires only two fields: a string and a byte array, while table A requires a string and a byte array among many things. Logs of the component indicates an out of memory error:
Code:

I'm very certain other data paths are not corrupted, and there exists a strong correlation between the time of OOM error and the data corruption.
Has anyone came across some similar symptoms or have insight regarding this issue? Thanks.
