------------------------------------
Thanks [~yifanzou] for reporting and investigating this issue.
For the debug purpose, can I reproduce it on local machine?
> Thread leaking in Portable Python Precommit

> Key: BEAM-7109
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-7109
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: testing
> Reporter: yifan zou
> Assignee: Ankur Goenka
> Priority: Critical
> Attachments: threadDump.txt
>
>
> Beam Jenkins constantly break due to some weird errors such as "Unable to
> create new native thread". The recent build worker failure happened on
> [apache-beam-jenkins-8]
> ([https://builds.apache.org/computer/apache-beam-jenkins-8/builds]). Checking
> the thread number on that VM shows:
> Thread limit: kernel.pid_max = 32768
> Actual used: 32411
>
> Dumping the thread usage (see [^threadDump.txt]) exposed thread leaking on
> some Python tests. And based on the execution history of the jenkins-8, the
> [beam_PreCommit_Portable_Python_Commit]
> ([https://builds.apache.org/job/beam_PreCommit_Portable_Python_Commit]) is
> suspicious. We ran this test multiple times on a plain node and observed that
> some thread started by +_apache_beam.runners.worker.sdk_worker_main_+ were
> not tear down after tests complete. The stale threads finally accumulated and
> ate the VM kernel thread quota.
