Xiaomin Zhang created HIVE-15551: ------------------------------------ Summary: memory leak in directsql for mysql specific initialization Key: HIVE-15551 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-15551 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Metastore Affects Versions: 0.13.0 Reporter: Xiaomin Zhang
We observed HMS memory leak when directsql is enabled for MySQL metastore DB. The affected code is in the method MetaStoreDirecdtSql.executeNoResult(): ((Connection)jdoConn.getNativeConnection()).createStatement().execute(queryText); The statement object (from createStatement()) is unfortunately referenced in the Connection object. Although close() is called on the Connection object in finally block, the BoneCP just moves it to a freeConnection list. Hence, statement object never get chances to be closed. The leaked statement object is not huge (~1KB as observed in memory analyzer). However long running Hive Metastore Server is very likely ended up with bad performance doing frequent garbage collection. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
