JAVA将字符串导致,java-由大字符串引起的OutOfMemoryException

我正在使用以下方法从webapi捕获数据：

public static String sendRequest(String requestURL, String data)

throws IOException {

URL url = new URL(requestURL + "?" + data);

URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();

conn.setReadTimeout(10000);

BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(

conn.getInputStream()));

String inputLine;

StringBuilder answerBuilder = new StringBuilder("");

try {

while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)

answerBuilder.append(inputLine);

in.close();

} catch (Exception e) {

}

return answerBuilder.toString();

}

对于某些请求,这会由于HeapSize太小而导致OutOfMemoryError：

(...)Caused by: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: (Heap Size=17927KB, Allocated=14191KB, Bitmap Size=2589KB)

我已经从正常的String操作(如String answer = inputLine)交换为StringBuilder,但这没有帮助.我怎么解决这个问题？通过export JVM_ARGS =“-Xmx1024m -XX：MaxPermSize = 256m”来增加最大堆大小并不是一个选项,因为它是一个Android应用程序.
