John Sisson commented on GERONIMO-1464: --------------------------------------- I think Kevan had some ideas about file cleanup, maybe he can add some comments. I agree we need to ensure these files get deleted. > Avoid use of file.deleteOnExit() - will cause allocation of 1K of memory per > call until JVM terminates > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: GERONIMO-1464 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1464 > Project: Geronimo > Type: Bug > Components: Memory Leaks > Versions: 1.0 > Reporter: John Sisson > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.1 > > I haven't run into a memory problem but came across this bug in Sun's bug > database and a number of people warning not to use deleteOnExit() in server > code. > According to http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4513817 each > call to file.deleteOnExit() will allocate 1K of memory until the JVM > terminates. I have not had the chance to verify it, but I have raised this > JIRA in case someone is tracking a memory leak in the future or someone has > time to review our usage of deleteOnExit(). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
