Hi Prasanta,
Even in the previous case, it falls through and returns false. The same behavior is maintained with the current code as well. Thanks, Krishna From: Prasanta Sadhukhan Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2017 2:00 PM To: Krishna Addepalli <krishna.addepa...@oracle.com> Cc: awt-dev@openjdk.java.net Subject: Re: <AWT Dev> [10][JDK-8175015] FileSystemView.isDrive(File) memory leak on "C:\" file reference One thing, if sf.isFileSystem() is true and sf.parent is NULL, then in previous case, it falls through but with this fix, it returns false. Can you clarify?

Did you check other priorities like Thread.MAX_PRIORITY-1/2/3? ----- HYPERLINK "mailto:krishna.addepa...@oracle.com"krishna.addepa...@oracle.com wrote: Hi Sergey, The root cause for the OOM exception is due to mismatched thread priority. When folders are listed, each folder/file is associated with a COM object, that is wrapped by the Java ShellFolder object. Now, when the ShellFolder object needs to be deleted, the underlying COM object should be released in ComThread, whose priority is normal. Whereas, the java2D.Disposer thread runs at highest priority, but it is unable to clean up the piled up objects, which eventually leads to this exception. I have added a fix for this as well, and created a new webrev as below: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~pkbalakr/Krishna/8175015/webrev01/ Thanks, Krishna -----Original Message----- From: Sergey Bylokhov Sent: Wednesday, August 9, 2017 5:16 AM To: Krishna Addepalli HYPERLINK "mailto:krishna.addepa...@oracle.com"<krishna.addepa...@oracle.com>; HYPERLINK "mailto:awt-dev@openjdk.java.net"awt-dev@openjdk.java.net Subject: Re: <AWT Dev> [10][JDK-8175015] FileSystemView.isDrive(File) memory leak on "C:\" file reference Hi, Krishna.> The problem is internally, Win32ShellFolderManager2.java, the function "isFileSystemRoot" is called, which lists the contents of all the root drives, in addition to including them. It also includes the hidden files. For each file present, it is wrapped with a "Win32ShellFolder2" object. So, for each query, it will list the files in the drives, and throws them away, which is leading to both memory consumption as well as slow performance. If for each query we list the files in the drive and *throws* all of them away, then why(and where) we have a memory leak and as a result OOM. -- Best regards, Sergey.
