> Memory leak in CompressedChunkReader
> ------------------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-15880
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15880
> Project: Cassandra

> CompressedChunkReader uses java.lang.ThreadLocal to reuse ByteBuffer for
> compressed data. ByteBuffers leak due to peculiar ThreadLocal quality.
> ThreadLocals are stored in a map, where the key is a weak reference to a
> ThreadLocal and the value is the user's object (ByteBuffer in this case).
> When a last strong reference to a ThreadLocal is lost, weak reference to
> ThreadLocal (key) is removed but the value (ByteBuffer) is kept until cleaned
> by ThreadLocal heuristic expunge mechanism. See ThreadLocal's "stale entries"
> for details.
> When a number of long-living threads is high enough this results in thousands
> of ByteBuffers stored as stale entries in ThreadLocals. In a not-so-lucky
> scenario we get OutOfMemoryException.
