Ning Zhang commented on HIVE-1959: ---------------------------------- +1 on WeakHashMap. HiveHistory.endQuery() is called at the finally clause of Driver.execute(). There are some early exits (should be changed in my opinion. I will file another JIRA to fix this) in the loop of execute() which will bypass the finally clause. Using WeakHashMap can prevent leaks in this case. > Potential memory leak when same connection used for long time. TaskInfo and > QueryInfo objects are getting accumulated on executing more queries on the > same connection. > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1959 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1959 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Server Infrastructure > Affects Versions: 0.8.0 > Environment: Hadoop 0.20.1, Hive0.5.0 and SUSE Linux Enterprise > Server 10 SP2 (i586) - Kernel 2.6.16.60-0.21-smp (5). > Reporter: Chinna Rao Lalam > Assignee: Chinna Rao Lalam > Attachments: HIVE-1959.patch > > > *org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.history.HiveHistory$TaskInfo* and > *org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.history.HiveHistory$QueryInfo* these two objects > are getting accumulated on executing more number of queries on the same > connection.
