Hi,
This issue is apparently related to the email thread
"Duplicate Subscriptions activemq-admin query"
With three different test cases, sending over 2 million messages
1. Durable Topic Consumer reconnecting with different selectors
2. Durable Topic Consumer connecting with single selector
3. Non Durable Topic Consumer reconnecting with different selectors
heap grows (in particular the OldGen Memory Pool) only in case (1)
with the Durable Topic Consumer reconnecting using different selectors.
As the other mail thread points out, ActiveMQ Subscriptions grow if
different selectors are subscribed for (at different times,
disconnecting
and reconnecting) using the same clientId on a Durable Topic.
This fortunately is not a real world scenario for us, but rather an
artifact of the way we are testing. Our Durable Topic Consumers will
subscribe using selectors, but will not change them if/when
reconnecting.

PS It was nice to meet you Rob Davies (and friends) at the
Billerica Pub Crawl back on April 20th.

Subject: RE: ActiveMQ 5.3.0 Memory Usage - Connections
Hi,
Back to 5.3.0, I tried changing the Queue to a Durable Topic.
Producer - > Durable Topic - > Server - > Durable Topic - >
Consumer
"Tenured Gen" is no longer a memory heap option shown by jconsole.
Instead the "PS Old Gen" Memory Pool is increasing, basically in
a linear manner, with a couple of short drops, but continuously
increasing over time.
Looking at the Admin Web Page, it shows Enqueues, but no Dequeues
Topics
Name Number Of Consumers Messages Enqueued Messages
Dequeued Operations
notification.producer 1 385428 0
Send To Delete
notification.consumer 1 384640 0
Send To Delete
The Durable Topic Subscriber counters show
Dispatched = Enqueue = Dequeue
Why are there no Dequeues for the Topics? What does this mean?
Thanks,
Peter P

Hi,
Even with ActiveMQ 5.3.1, I see the Heap Memory Usage creeping up
over time (albeit sawtooth). It's now committed 58MB of 63 MB max.
The MBeans show
Queue
CursorMemoryUsage = 0
DequeueCount = 46886
Dispatched Count = 46886
Enqueue Count = 46886
Queue Size = 0
Subscription Durable Topic
DequeueCounter = 1002
Dispatched Counter = 1002
Enqueue Counter = 1002
Dispatched Queue Size = 0
Subscription Non-Durable Queue
DequeueCounter = 47331
Dispatched Counter = 48002
Enqueue Counter = 48002
Dispatched Queue Size = 671
Topic
DequeueCount = 0
Dispatched Count = 48825
Enqueue Count = 48868
Queue Size = 0
The Subscription Durable Topic keeps disappearing and reappearing
because the client in the unit tests disconnects and reconnects
after running each test, sometimes sending one message, sometimes
sending as many as 1000. That's why the count is so small for the
Subscription Durable Topic.
I'm concerned that the Subscription of the Queue is showing up as
Non Durable. Using activemq-cpp, the server subscribes for the queue
using
consumer = session->createConsumer()
I would have liked to have created it using
consumer = session->createDurableConsumer()
however, that method only has support for a Topic, not a Queue
dynamic_cast<Topic *>(destination)
Could this be contributing to the growing memory?
Persistent messages are being sent.

Hi Rob,
One more thing I noticed, is that QueueSize of the Top Level Topic
(the one created by server's createTopic() I believe) always grows
with the Enqueue Count.
Topic Attributes
DequeueCount = 0
DispatchCount = 1004
EnqueueCount = 1003
QueueSize = 1003
I just loaded 5.3.1
INFO | ActiveMQ 5.3.1 JMS Message Broker (amq-broker) is starting
and this behavior is different. The Queue Size now remains zero
DequeueCount = 0
DispatchCount = 4244
EnqueueCount = 4247
QueueSize = 0
So I'm hopeful. I'll let the tests run for a while....
Thanks!

Hi Peter,
cursors are used by persistent messages too. The error about paged in
messages in the jira issue is a bit of a red herring - but I did see
similar behaviour to what you describe when before I resolved that issue
cheers,
Rob
