Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-6460:
--------------------------------------
I think it would be simpler to just create new ByteArrayOutputStream when the
array size crosses the limit (inside Handler.run()).
This issue was discussed in HADOOP-4802.
> Namenode runs of out of memory due to memory leak in ipc Server

> Namenode heap usage grows disproportional to the number objects supports
> (files, directories and blocks). Based on heap dump analysis, this is due to
> large growth in ByteArrayOutputStream allocated in
> o.a.h.ipc.Server.Handler.run().
