Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-5316:
-------------------------------------------
I instrumented the DriverManager.registerDriver() and
DriverManager.unregisterDriver() and ran the upgrade tests. It looks like the
combination of DERBY-2905 and DERBY-5267 made the upgrade tests deregister
driver versions lower than 10.2 and higher than 10.7. But we still have 11
versions that don't get deregistered.
> Unload old JDBC drivers when done with them in the upgrade tests

> After we're done testing an old version in the upgrade tests, its classes are
> still loaded in the JVM because the old driver is referenced in
> DriverManager. We should find a way to unload the old drivers so that the
> memory usage of the upgrade tests is reduced. Now we typically need to run
> with -XX:MaxPermSize=200M or similar options to work around this issue.
