    https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/pull/312
  
    @hanm The issue is raised while tens thousands of clients try to reconnect 
ZooKeeper service. Actually, we came across the issue during maintaining our 
HBase cluster, which used a  5-server ZooKeeper cluster. The HBase cluster was 
composed of many many regionservers (in thousand order of magnitude), and 
connected by tens thousands of clients to do massive reads/writes. Because the 
r/w throughput is very high, ZooKeeper zxid increased quickly as well. 
Basically, each two or three weeks, Zookeeper would make leader relection 
triggered by the zxid roll over. The leader relection will cause the 
clients(HBase regionservers and HBase clients) disconnected and reconnected 
with Zookeeper servers in the mean time, and try to renew the sessions. 
    
    In current implementation of session renew, NIOServerCnxnFactory will clone 
all the connections at first in order to avoid race condition in multi-threads 
and go iterate the cloned connection set one by one to find the related session 
to renew. It's very time consuming. In our case (described above), it caused 
many region servers can't  successfully  renew session before session timeout, 
and eventually the HBase cluster lose these region servers and affect the HBase 
stability. 
    
    The change is to make refactoring to the close session logic and introduce 
a ConcurrentHashMap to store session id and connection map relation, which is a 
thread-safe data structure and eliminate the necessary to clone the connection 
set at first.

> If there are thousands of clients, and most of them disconnect with server 
> same time(client restarted or servers partitioned with clients), the server 
> will busy to close those "connections" and become unavailable. The problem is 
> in following:
>   private void closeSessionWithoutWakeup(long sessionId) {
>       HashSet<NIOServerCnxn> cnxns;
>           synchronized (this.cnxns) {
>               cnxns = (HashSet<NIOServerCnxn>)this.cnxns.clone();  // other 
> thread will block because of here
>           }
>       ...
>   }
