Lukasz Lenart commented on WW-4536:
-----------------------------------
Thanks for the heap dump!
I see the following solutions here:
- extend {{SkipValidation}} annotation (or introduce a new one) to allow mark
the whole class to be skipped
- make {{buildValidatorKey}} a non-static method to allow easlly override it -
this will help with keys like this one
{{org/tdar/struts/action/SlugViewAction-123456-validation.xml}} where it should
be the same key for all the actions (
{{org/tdar/struts/action/SlugViewAction-validation.xml}} )
- introduce an {{excluded}} classes parameter, ie.
{{excludedClasses=java.lang.Object, com.opensymphony.xwork2.Preparable, ...}}
wdyt?

> We've recently been having issues with our app crashing and trying to track
> down the root causes. One of the things we've seen is that over the course
> of 1 day, 50% of our memory (almost 620 MB of 1.2 GB) is allocated to
> "com.opensymphony.xwork.validator.AnnotationActionValidatorManager" according
> to the heap dump. We also see millions of entries in two SynchronizedMap's:
> * validatorCache (1,635,019 entries)
> * validatorFileCache (87,321 entries)
> Looking through the entries in the validator cache, we se entries for every
> unique page browsed within the app. Note: we're using staticParam mapping and
> NamedVariable PatternMatching in action names e.g. {{"$\{id\}/$\{slug\}"}} so
> effectively every url is unique.
> Looking at the source code, should these maps perhaps be "WeakHashMaps" or
> WeakReferences so that they're disposed of?
> (source code to the app is here: https://bitbucket.org/tdar/tdar.src/src )
