> I had some nifi nodes crash last night with errors that suggested file 
> handles where exhausted. When I looked into lsof, I found tens of thousands 
> of open file handles to a public key I was using in EncryptContent.
> It looks to me like the OpenPGPKeyBasedEncryptor.getPublicKey leaks file 
> handles. Because this is called in EncryptContent's validate method, these 
> file handles build up even when there is no data flow. You can reproduce by 
> the following:
> * Create a PGP public key
> * Set up an EncryptContent processor with the public key for PGP encryption.
> * Do lsof | grep publicKey and see the file handles build up.
> I have a patch. Will post a pull request shortly. I have no idea how to test 
> it though other than that I ran it locally and the file handles stopped 
> building up when I used the patched code.
