Jonas Borgström commented on CASSANDRA-15006:
---------------------------------------------
I took a heap dump of on of the nodes this morning and compared it against an
older one using jxray. I'm no expert but it looks like the memory allocated by
"org.apache.cassandra.utils.memory.BufferPool" keeps increasing. Since the
ChunkCache seems capped at HEAP/4 what else is using the BufferPool?
> Possible java.nio.DirectByteBuffer leak

> Key: CASSANDRA-15006
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15006
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: cassandra: 3.11.3
> jre: openjdk version "1.8.0_181"
> heap size: 2GB
> memory limit: 3GB (cgroup)
> I started one of the nodes with "-Djdk.nio.maxCachedBufferSize=262144" but
> that did not seem to make any difference.
> Reporter: Jonas Borgström
> Priority: Major

> While testing a 3 node 3.11.3 cluster I noticed that the nodes were suddenly
> killed by the Linux OOM killer after running without issues for 4-5 weeks.
> After enabling more metrics and leaving the nodes running for 12 days it sure
> looks like the
> "java.nio:type=BufferPool,name=direct" Mbean shows a very linear growth
> (approx 15MiB/24h, see attached screenshot). Is this expected to keep growing
> linearly after 12 days with a constant load?
>
> In my setup the growth/leak is about 15MiB/day so I guess in most setups it
> would take quite a few days until it becomes noticeable. I'm able to see the
> same type of slow growth in other production clusters even though the graph
> data is more noisy.
