--------------------------------------
HIVE-3098 fixes it for metastore .
This fix can be dangerous for the embedded metastore use case.
bq. I think because of my test being run as a single user.
Single user shouldn't matter as the cache is based on the UGI object as I
mentioned earlier. Testing using hive-cli might be better that would ensure
creation on new metastore connection each time as well.
I assume you haven't seen this in other user environments. I suspect there is
something unique about their environment that would be triggering this. You
might want to check if their are using any specific plugins.
Is this with kerberos enabled ?

> Looking a heap dump of 10GB, a large number of Configuration objects(> 66k
> instances) are being retained. These objects along with its retained set is
