-------------------------------------

             Summary: ATS Memory Leak related to SPDY
                 Key: TS-2767
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2767
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SPDY
            Reporter: Sudheer Vinukonda


During production testing of SPDY, we noticed ATS's memory quickly grows to 
about 20g RES and 31g VIRT and eventually becomes unresponsive. dstat shows a 
lot of disk/paging activity. 

Running Valgrind on a single request (using spdycat) shows the below possible 
leaks.

Upon closer look, one possible issue might be the usage std::string in the 
SpdyRequest object. The string objects created during spdy request processing 
may not be getting released correctly. 

Adding the below additional code in SpdyRequest::clear() to swap out the string 
objects with dummy/empty string objects seems to satisfy Valgrind to not report 
the above leaks. Am trying this version on the production host to confirm 
further.


{code}

void
SpdyRequest::clear()
{
  if (fetch_sm)
    TSFetchDestroy(fetch_sm);

  vector<pair<string, string> >().swap(headers);
  headers.clear();

  std::string().swap(url);
  std::string().swap(host);
  std::string().swap(path);
  std::string().swap(scheme);
  std::string().swap(method);
  std::string().swap(version);

  Debug("spdy", "****Delete Request[%" PRIu64 ":%d]", spdy_sm->sm_id, 
stream_id);
}
