dingyichuan created HADOOP-9182: ----------------------------------- Summary: the buffer used in hdfsRead seems leaks when the thread exits Key: HADOOP-9182 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9182 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: filecache Environment: Linux RHEP x64 Reporter: dingyichuan
I use multi-threads in my c++ program to download 3000 files in HDFS use libhdfs. Every thread is created by "pthread_create" to download a file and exit. We monitor the memory status when the program is running. It seems every thread will create a buffer which size is specified by the buffersize parameter in "hdfsOpenFile" function. But when the thread finish the task and exit, it doesn't free the buffer. So our program will eventually abort by Java's "out of memory" exception. I just don't know how to free the buffer or I use these functions in wrong way. Thanks! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
