c# - System.OutOfMemoryException with JSON.NET with List<object>

Question

I'm doing a process where my server generates a file with JSON.Net with 25000 records and size of 85MB, then this file is imported by client.

The client downloads the file and makes the deserialize with JSON.Net.

My problem is that the times and on different machines, deserialize command is giving:

System.OutOfMemoryException

Note: I tried to manually use the GC did not work.

Code generate error:

var listAddress = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<address>>(File.ReadAllText(@"c:Tempest.json");

Code generate JSON File:

using (StreamWriter file = File.CreateText("C:\test.json"))
{
    JsonSerializer serializer = new JsonSerializer();                        
    serializer.Serialize(file, listAddress);                        
}

I was playing around a bit with the answer linked above: Deserialize json array stream one item at a time. The following slight modification might meet your needs. It reads and deserializes the JSON item-by-item rather than loading the entire list into memory:

public static class JsonConvertExtensions
{
    public static IEnumerable<T> DeserializeEnumerableFile<T>(string filename)
    {
        using (var stream = new StreamReader(filename))
            foreach (var item in DeserializeEnumerable<T>(stream))
                yield return item;
    }

    public static IEnumerable<T> DeserializeEnumerableString<T>(string json)
    {
        using (var sr = new StringReader(json))
            foreach (var item in DeserializeEnumerable<T>(sr))
                yield return item;
    }

    public static IEnumerable<T> DeserializeEnumerable<T>(TextReader textReader)
    {
        var serializer = JsonSerializer.CreateDefault();

        using (JsonTextReader reader = new JsonTextReader(textReader))
        {
            while (reader.Read())
            {
                if (reader.TokenType == JsonToken.StartObject)
                {
                    // Load each object from the stream and do something with it
                    yield return serializer.Deserialize<T>(reader);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
