I wanted to send data to Kafka > by using a producer pool as I'm using a sync producer. The thread that sends > the data is from the thread pool that grows and shrinks depending on the > usage. So, when I try to send data from one thread, 1 KQUEUE and 2 PIPES are > created (got this info by using lsof). If I keep using the same thread it's > fine but when a new thread sends data to Kafka (using producer.send() ) a new > KQUEUE and 2 PIPEs are created. > This is okay, but when the thread is cleared from the thread pool and a new > thread is created, then new KQUEUEs and PIPEs are created. The problem is > that the old ones which were created are not getting destroyed and they are > showing up as open files. This is causing a major problem as the number of > open file keep increasing and does not decrease. > Please suggest any solutions. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
