android 内存查找字符串,Android：在不耗尽内存的情况下将流转换为字符串

我有一个android客户端，可通过REST风格的端点和JSON与服务器进行通信。因此，我需要先检索完整的服务器响应，然后再将其转换为哈希。我有以下代码可以做到这一点(可以在某个地方的互联网上找到)：

private static String convertStreamToString(InputStream is) {

BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

String line = null;

try {

while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {

sb.append(line + "\n");

}

} catch (IOException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

} finally {

try {

is.close();

} catch (IOException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

}

return sb.toString();

}

该代码在大多数情况下有效，但是我在行中看到OutOfMemory异常的客户端发生崩溃的报告：

while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {

完整的堆栈跟踪为：

我的问题：除了从服务器发送较小的数据块外，还有什么方法可以解决此问题？

谢谢！
