Thanks a lot Michael for getting to the bottom of this.

I've dug into this some more. It turns out that akka-persistence is using 
leveldb correctly, but leveldb has issues when you store large values.

See this and this for the full details.

Nevermind. I was mistaken. While the upgrade to akka 2.3.5 made the leak less 
obvious, it still exists. I have submitted a pull request to the example code 
Manas provided in order to make it more obvious.

For what it's worth, I checked out the code that Manas provided 
(https://github.com/manasdebashiskar/akkapersistenceExample) and changed the 
build.scala to use Scala 2.10.4.
That itself changed nothing, and the problem still existed.

However, when I changed the build.scala to use Akka 2.3.5 (ignoring the 
deprecation warnings since Persistent Channels, etc, are now deprecated), this 
problem seems to have gone away.

Thanks Martin for helping me with this. I will keep an eye on this ticket.
I realized that I never thanked you for the awesome piece of work you have done 
on Akka persistence to make our life so easy.

Thanks you!

Hi Manas,

I can reproduce what you reported and need to investigate that further. I 
verified that the written messages are actually deleted and that there are no 
additional writes of messages or confirmation markers made by your app. I'm 
quite busy with other stuff at the moment, so it may take a while. Ticket 
created: https://www.assembla.com/spaces/akka/tickets/3962

Thanks for testing and reporting

Cheers,
Martin

Hi Martin, 
     To answer your previous question nothing happens if I restart my 
application. The persisted files don't get deleted. I also tested the code with 
a smaller size message and was able to see the same problem.
     I have created a very simple runnable application that uses 
PersistenceChannel to send messages to a IOWorker that immediately confirms the 
message. As stated above; this examples shows how the journal space keeps 
growing over time even though the message gets          confirmed and should be 
deleted after a while asynchronously.

The code is placed here. 

Once again thanks for your help. I am sure it is something that I am doing 
wrong because of which only I see this and no-one else seems to be complaining 
about.

Hi Martin,
 I have a process that is running since last Sunday evening using the above 
code base(Given here) . The journal space has grown to be around 24 GB so far. 
I am still continuing my run to see when the compaction will happen and the 
"marked deleted" messages will be physically deleted.

What happens when you restart the application?

The only way my code is different than your example is that my message has the 
size of 8 MB. Could that be playing some role?

No.


Thanks

 That explains what I am seeing.

Hi Martin, 
 I observed something that kind of contradicts my previous statement. It would 
be correct to say that the size of journal folder is approximately half the 
size of SumOf(messages).

 My messages don't get replayed after the configurable times from the channels. 
But the journal's are not physically deleted amounting to large disk usage.
 Please find my modified scala code that follows the example you provided and 
still leaves residues in journal folder.

LevelDB doesn't delete entries immediately, it rather marks them as deleted and 
physically deletes them during compactions. Details at 
http://leveldb.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/doc/impl.html.


Thanks

Hi, 
 I am very excited about the latest and the biggest feature of Akka2.3.0 that 
is Persistence. 
 I have posted a question about Akka persistentChannel here. 
 Basically I have a persistentChannel that sends some IOWork to a destination 
actor. Destination actor tries to do the work and when successfully completes 
the work or the deadline has no time left it sends a "confirm" on  the 
ConfirmablePersistent message.

My expectation after reading the documentation was that my message will be 
deleted from the journal after I "confirm" the message but it does not. Am I 
doing something wrong here? my requirement is simple persist the message and 
delete it after the corresponding IO work is done for the message. 

 Please help.
