             Summary: Last value queue memory leak
                 Key: QPID-3979
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-3979
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java Broker
    Affects Versions: 0.14, 0.12, 0.16, 0.17
            Reporter: Philip Harvey


I have observed a memory leak when using a last value queue. 

Upon investigation, it seems that this is due to a bug in the management of 
ConflationQueueList._latestValuesMap. This map is keyed by the configured 
conflation key. Whilst entries are correctly replaced when new messages arrive, 
they are never *deleted*. Therefore, an entry remains in the map for every key 
value that has ever existed.

The problem is compounded by the fact that the retained ConflationQueueEntry's 
can reference other entries - that is how the linked list behaviour of the 
queue list is achieved. Therefore, retaining a single entry in the 
aforementioned map can cause a large number of other entries to remain in 
memory.
