> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Broker
> Affects Versions: 5.1.0, 5.2.0

> Reporter: Aaron Pieper

> I'm encountering what appears to be a memory leak in the BrokerService. The
> symptom is that the BrokerService's memory usage increases with each message
> that is sent to a topic. The memory usage increases proportionally with the
> size of the message, as though each message is being stored permanently in
> memory.
> I've included an example which continuously sends messages around 1 megabyte
> in size to a topic with a single subscriber. If you run the included
> BrokerMemoryLeak.java, you should see the following output:
> Memory Usage: 0 Memory Percent: 0 Send count: 0
> Memory Usage: 16016576 Memory Percent: 23 Send count: 16
> Memory Usage: 38039368 Memory Percent: 56 Send count: 38
> Memory Usage: 61063196 Memory Percent: 90 Send count: 61
> Memory Usage: 68070448 Memory Percent: 101 Send count: 68
> Memory Usage: 68070448 Memory Percent: 101 Send count: 68
> BrokerService's memory usage climbs steadily until the memory percent hits
> 100. Then, messages stop being sent. There are several ways to make the bug
> stop happening:
> * Switch from using a Topic to a Queue
> * Switch the Broker address to 'vm://foo', so it's not using TCP
> * Set the third argument in the 'createConsumer' call to false. (the
> noLocal argument)
> * Don't register the MessageListener
