Kostas Kloudas commented on FLINK-7606: --------------------------------------- Hi Matteo, Thanks for reporting this! Any additional information and details that you have would help us pin down the problem. It would be really helpful if you could actually provide a minimal code example that reproduces the problem (e.g. job code and format of the elements). > Memory leak on NestedMapsStateTable > ----------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-7606 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7606 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: CEP > Affects Versions: 1.3.1 > Reporter: Matteo Ferrario > > The NestedMapsStateTable grows up continuously without free the heap memory. > We created a simple job that processes a stream of messages and uses CEP to > generate an outcome message when a specific pattern is identified. > The messages coming from the stream are grouped by a key defined in a > specific field of the message. > We've also added the "within" clause (set as 5 minutes), indicating that two > incoming messages match the pattern only if they come in a certain time > window. > What we've seen is that for every key present in the message, an NFA object > is instantiated in the NestedMapsStateTable and it is never deallocated. > Also the "within" clause didn't help: we've seen that if we send messages > that don't match the pattern, the memory grows up (I suppose that the state > of NFA is updated) but it is not cleaned also after the 5 minutes of time > window defined in "within" clause. > If you need, I can provide more details about the job we've implemented and > also the screenshots about the memory leak. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
