Feb 17, 2016 at 17:49 comment added bosco1 I've updated the above code on dzone with a type of code with no limitations of memory but since it will take too long to compute in days. I'll accept your code as a solution :) Thanks for it.
Feb 17, 2016 at 12:37 comment added Tunaki @bosco1 No algorithm will be able to make that work when you have billion and billions of permutations. What do you want to achieve?

Feb 16, 2016 at 12:02 comment added Tunaki @bosco1 That's more of a design problem: if you want to generate all the permutations of a very large list, it's bound to take time and memory. But, note a Stream is lazy in that even if there are billions of permutation and you're interested in a few of them, you can limit the result. And as I said, you chose what the end-container will be: perhaps you don't need to store them. For example, you could then post-process the stream with other map, reduce operations without storing all the elements in a list.
Feb 16, 2016 at 11:01 comment added bosco1 The limitation to this the stream will take memory. If the list is large where to store?
