Dan Smith created GEODE-5765: -------------------------------- Summary: AlterRuntimeCommandDUnitTest slows down due to large numbers of classes loaded Key: GEODE-5765 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-5765 Project: Geode Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Dan Smith
We observed that several tests in this class are taking minutes when they should be taking a few seconds at most. After some debugging, we determined that the JVM itself is struggling to deal with having 100K+ classes loaded. They are loaded because the test is repeated starting and stopping the http service, which creates a classloader and causes soft references to all of the loaded classes to be cached. By setting a flag to clear the soft references faster, the test times go back to normal. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
