matteo rulli created AMQ-5129:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Substitute TimeTask with ScheduledExecutorService in 
org.apache.activemq.thread.Scheduler
                 Key: AMQ-5129
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-5129
             Project: ActiveMQ
          Issue Type: Wish
    Affects Versions: 5.9.0
            Reporter: matteo rulli


Since Timer has only one execution thread, long-running task can affect other 
scheduled tasks. Besides, runtime exceptions thrown in TimerTasks kill the only 
one running thread, bringing down the entire Scheduler.

I have the suspect that all this could relate to AMQ-3938: sometimes in very 
busy environments I experience exaclty the same problem: a slow leakeage due to 
temp queues that are not deleted. Since 
org.apache.activemq.broker.region.RegionBroker uses a Scheduler to activate the 
purgeInactiveDestinations, a crashed timer could explain why 
purgeInactiveDestinations stops working.

I attached a tentative patch to migrate timer to ScheduledExecutorService. Hope 
this helps.
