-----------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
> Revisit table coprocessor classloader caching
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-12856
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12856
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Andrew Kyle Purtell
> Priority: Major
>
> For table coprocessors, we create coprocessor classloaders and cache them
> keyed on the path to the coprocessor jar. However, we cache weak refs so it's
> quite possible if the refs are not being retained due to heap pressure we
> might create a new classloader on the next region open, i.e. after a split or
> relocation. If under very heavy write load, perhaps ingest with all edits
> skipping the WAL for example, we'd be both generating a ton of garbage and
> rapidly splitting at the same time.
> We should revisit the notion of keeping only weak refs.
