> We were doing a large import over thrift today (250M rows) with 50 columns
> each. We noticed when this process started, that the heap usage slowly began
> to rise. Eventually hitting 10GB. After investigating heap dumps we noticed
> this is linked to GC problems in the JVM for LinkedBlockingQueue. Sending a
> hint through jconsole to perform GC didn't help either.
> See this article:
> http://tech.puredanger.com/2009/02/11/linkedblockingqueue-garbagecollection/
> JDK 1.6.18 doesn't have this fix yet either. We could possibly add the
> change from:
> http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/harmony/standard/classlib/trunk/modules/concurrent/src/main/java/java/util/concurrent/LinkedBlockingQueue.java
