Hi.
Congomongo is a fairly thin wrapper around the MongoDB java driver.
All fetch requests are proxied through the driver which handles all
opening and closing of connections automatically.
Its main utility is providing a smooth(er) interface between Clojure's
immutable types and the mutable types that the driver deals in. It also
tries to unify various similar methods on collections into a few
parameterizable functions.
It does tend to give the garbage collector a workout on large (for some
value of large) reads and writes. That seems to have been the case with
regards to the discussion from IRC that you mentioned.
Cheers,
Andy
A couple days ago, on IRC, I observed some folks talking about a
possible memory leak in the somnium congomongo clojure interface to
mongoDB. The discussion suggested that each fetch opens the file
without closing it, and pretty soon you get an error. Does anyone
know what happened with this? Is it a real problem, and if so, is it
being addressed?
I'm about to start a project using clojure/mongoDB but don't want to
use it if there's a known problem without a known fix.
Thanks,
Mark
