Ok, that was a silly question, I think I understand why we only have one servlet, amongst other things it is the glue between HttpSessions and ObjectContexts.

Out of curiosity, I have noticed that there is only one instance of the servlet created for all requests/responses. This one instance is responsible for all communication between the server and clients for the life of the server. Previous memory leak reports for Jetty point to Loggers not being released at the correct points, but I have been going through the source for both Hassian and Cayenne and have found no evidence of any Loggers even existing in the code.

I suspect your sessions are not timing out. As SF anonymous CVS seems to be dead for good, I just moved the example code to Apache subversion [1]. There is a sample listener class, cayenne3t.example.util.SessionTracker, that debugs session deallocation. Timeout is controlled in web.xml via standard means:

<session-config>
   <session-timeout>10</session-timeout>
</session-config>

Hi all,

We are getting close to releasing a preview version of our software that utilizes Multi-tier Cayenne. We have started to stress test it and we have hit a problem, something on the server us consuming
memory and never releases it.
I tried profiling the server application and it appears that RawData objects (our first hunch) on the server are being GC'ed correctly. There is no indication of excessive instances of any class, Cayenne
or not.

The one thing not being monitored by the profiler is servlets. Judging by the memory usage jumps, I have a sneaking suspicion that it is the HessianServlet responses that are not being GC'ed - the
increases seem to correspond to data requests.

The particular piece of GUI tested fetches a list of ~25,000 records from a table into a shared context with
paging  enabled, page size is 100 records.
The used memory in the JVM jumps by 30+ Mb as we traverse through all the records. The JVM never
releases that memory.

We have been through our code and we are definitely not keeping any references to instances of
servlets, requests or responses.

We are using Jetty as the server.

I was hoping someone might have some pointers before I jump into writing a profiling container for
the servlet. Any help appreciated.

Marek Wawrzyczny
