Memory leak when there are network connector retries to an unavailable broker
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: AMQ-2448
URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-2448
Project: ActiveMQ
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Broker
Affects Versions: 5.3.0
Environment: Debian Linux 5.0 amd64 with included Sun Java 6 JRE
Reporter: Alexander Fisher
I've discovered a reproducible memory leak. After discussion on IRC, it is
believed to be related to my network of brokers configuration.
I have a total of 4 brokers configured on 4 hosts (activemq1,2,3,4).
activemq1 and activemq2 are a shared filesystem master slave pair. activemq3
and activemq4 are setup in a similar way as a master/slave pair.
Only one of activemq1 and 2 will be active at a time, likewise only one of
activemq3 and 4.
Both activemq1 and activemq2 have a config with the following networkConnector.
<networkConnectors>
<networkConnector
uri="static://(tcp://activemq3:61616,tcp://activemq4:61616)"
name="Connection to 3 and 4"
networkTTL="5"
dynamicOnly="true"/>
</networkConnectors>
The broker will only be able to connect to either 3 or 4 as only one can be
running at a time.
For obvious reasons, connecting to the slave will fail, but the connection
attempt will be retried every 30 seconds by default (more often on initial
startup due to backoff algorithm).
It is believed that the continuous reconnect attempts are the source of the
memory leak.
