---------------------------------------------
Oh 2012, how we missed you. Apparently this is still an issue! We should
probably fix it.

> Project: ZooKeeper

> Components: java client, server
> Affects Versions: 3.4.3, 3.3.5
> Reporter: Jeremy Stribling

> The uncaught exception handler registered in NIOServerCnxnFactory and
> ClientCnxn simply logs exceptions and lets the rest of ZooKeeper go on its
> merry way. However, errors such as OutOfMemoryErrors should really crash the
> program, as they represent unrecoverable errors. If the exception that gets
> to the uncaught exception handler is an instanceof a java.lang.Error, ZK
> should exit with an error code (in addition to logging the error).
