Gert,

Thinking about it I'm not convinced that it is the same issue, just related.

Try creating a test that:
1). Consumer creates and send/sendSync an InOut message.
2). Provider (implemented via MessageExchangeListener) replies via send.
3). Consumer replies done.

I think that the send in step 2 places a copy of the exchange into a
HashMap. As the exchange is still active, it isn't removed by
checkEndOfRequest(Request) and needs removing at a later point in time. I
don't think that this is happening and hence the build up of
org.apache.servicemix.jbi.messaging objects.

If sendSync is used in replacement of send, then the exchange completes in
sequence so the exchange is removed from the HashMap by
checkEndOfRequest(Request) and the org.apache.servicemix.jbi.messaging
objects don't collect.

I don't think that using send on exchanges that state = done is a problem as
the exchange is no active and checkEndOfRequest(Request) removes it from the
HashMap.

BTW: The bug report refers to SMX3.2.2, I'm working on SMX3.3.1,
servicemix-bean v2009.01

Subject: Re: Not deallocating resources causing Old Gen memory leaks

Stuart,

Before attempting to fix the issue, I would like to write a unit test that
exposes the issue.  From what I read here, is the issue being caused by the
ExchangeStatus.DONE being sent with a plain send() (i.e.
using sendSync() in the finally block fixes it?) ?

I have added the test I was writing to the SMXCOMP-24 issue but that test
succeeds so I must have missed something there.  Can you help me pinpoint
what part of the issue I've been misinterpreting?

Regards,

Gert Vanthienen
