I think that we must do something, current master branch is not stable. My colleague Massimiliano opened this issue https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/issues/3751
Basically in the current master there is some problem that leads to Netty BytBuf corruption. The problem is solved by reverting this PR https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/pull/3528 Fix memory leak when reading entry but the connection disconnected Enrico Il giorno lun 30 gen 2023 alle ore 08:04 steven lu <lushiji2...@gmail.com> ha scritto: > > There are three ways to write release in current pulsar and bookkeeper > projects: > 1.ByteBuf.release: Call release directly without handling any exceptions; > 2.ReferenceCountUtil.release: return processing status; > 3.
