    JBossCacheAop Memory leak ?

    ctof

      Hi,
      Before using JBossCache in a production environnement, i try to test performance and memory stability

      You can find below an example where a publisher send asap a number of the same object and a subscriber which read asp the data (with cache notification)

      * First the CPU is always full (all is right, the publisher send data in a while(true) loop) ... but maybe it means the marshaling/unmarshaling have a certainly impact on the CP occupation.

      * Second, the memory is very stable for the sender but for receiver, the memory always grow up ... and a force gc doesn't change nothing.


      * the number of created thread (not live) is really incredibale > 2000 after sending 400000 msg

      I have test with different Jgroup config (from JGroups conf example) without succes.

      I run this sample under windows XP(pack 2) whith JVM 1.5.0_03 with a Xmx128m.
      I monitor the JVM with JConsole.
      I start both processes (publisher and subscriber) on the same machine (Dual xeon)
      When the max memory is riched (arround 128m), i have no out of memory exception but the publisher and subscriber are suspended (they do nothing).

      Any help is welcome, this memory pb is a bottleneck to use JBossCache into my company.

        • 1. Re: JBossCacheAop Memory leak ?

          Did you regulate your sender send rate? That is, did you do some sleep? If you don't, you will need a flow control protocol in jgroups stack. Otherwise, sender will just flood the network and gc won't start in time.

          I assume you are using repl_async?

            ctof

            Yes i use async,

            i don't use flow control protocol (i don't now if it's supported in this release of JBoss (1.2.4/jgroups 2.2.8),
            but as you can see in my publisher test class, all 1000 msg (via modulo)
            i call a sleep of 2000ms (i have test without).
            What is very strange is, this is not the publisher but the sender which grow up in memory.
            more strange and more supect for a production release is that the memory never retrieve a "normal" space.
            ( i mean: ok the JVM has allocate a big space of memory to compute a burst of msg, but when all msg have been send by the publisher
            (for example i test with 100 000 msg) the memory stay at the same level (and a force gc has no impact).

            Today, i try to test with TreeCache aonly (without AOP features).

              OK, if you still find that a problem, can you open up a JBossCache Jira issue and attach your test case?

              If it is aop-specific, please assign it to me and I will take a look.

                Hi Chris,

                Have you done the testing for TreeCache without AOP?
