Tim Smith commented on LUCENE-2283:
-----------------------------------

i'm working up a patch for the shared byteblock pool for stored field buffers 
(found a few cycles)


> Possible Memory Leak in StoredFieldsWriter
> ------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: LUCENE-2283
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2283
>             Project: Lucene - Java
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.1
>            Reporter: Tim Smith
>            Assignee: Michael McCandless
>             Fix For: 3.1
>
>
> StoredFieldsWriter creates a pool of PerDoc instances
> this pool will grow but never be reclaimed by any mechanism
> furthermore, each PerDoc instance contains a RAMFile.
> this RAMFile will also never be truncated (and will only ever grow) (as far 
> as i can tell)
> When feeding documents with large number of stored fields (or one large 
> dominating stored field) this can result in memory being consumed in the 
> RAMFile but never reclaimed. Eventually, each pooled PerDoc could grow very 
> large, even if large documents are rare.
> Seems like there should be some attempt to reclaim memory from the PerDoc[] 
> instance pool (or otherwise limit the size of RAMFiles that are cached) etc
