Goldstein Lyor commented on SSHD-754:
-------------------------------------
I have not had time to really think about the scenario you presented, and
nowadays it will take me a while to find some free time to review it. Please
feel free to go ahead and publish a pull-request once you think you have a
proposal in mind - it will be easier for us to review it and better understand
the problem and its possible fix.
That being said, off the top of my head - I believe one can control the window
size via properties and/or window-size SSH messages (don't remember offhand the
exact message exchange). AFAIK, the window size mechanism provides a way to
throttle the data rate, so maybe that can be a way to address this issue as
well.
> OOM in sending data for channel
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: SSHD-754
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-754
> Project: MINA SSHD
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Eugene Petrenko
>
> I have an implementation of SSHD server with the library. It sends gigabytes
> (e.g. 5GB) of data as command output.
> Starting from Putty plink 0.68 (also includes plink 0.69) we started to have
> OOM errors. Checking memory dumps shown the most of the memory is consumed
> from the function
> org.apache.sshd.common.session.AbstractSession#writePacket(org.apache.sshd.common.util.buffer.Buffer)
> In the hprof I see thousands of PendingWriteFuture objects (btw, each holds a
> reference to a logger instance). And those objects are only created from this
> function.
> It is clear the session is running through rekey. I see the kexState
> indicating the progress.
> Is there a way to artificially limit the sending queue, no matter if related
> remote window allows sending that enormous amount of data? As of my
> estimation, the window was reported to be around 1.5 GB or more. Maybe, such
> huge window size was caused by an arithmetic overflow that is fixed on
> SSHD-701
