--------------------------------------

HIVE-3098 fixes it for metastore . 
This fix can be dangerous for the embedded metastore use case.

bq. I think because of my test being run as a single user. 
Single user shouldn't matter as the cache is based on the UGI object as I 
mentioned earlier. Testing using hive-cli might be better that would ensure 
creation on new metastore connection each time as well.

I assume you haven't seen this in other user environments. I suspect there is 
something unique about their environment that would be triggering this. You 
might want to check if their are using any specific plugins.
Is this with kerberos enabled ?

> Looking a heap dump of 10GB, a large number of Configuration objects(> 66k 
> instances) are being retained. These objects along with its retained set is 
> occupying about 95% of the heap space. This leads to HMS crashes every few 
> days.
> I will attach an exported snapshot from the eclipse MAT.
