             Summary: MetricsSystemImpl could leak memory in registered 
callbacks
                 Key: HADOOP-11105
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11105
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Chuan Liu
            Assignee: Chuan Liu


In {{MetricsSystemImpl.register(final String name, final String description, 
final T sink)}} method, we will also add a callback function to the 
{{callbacks}} array list. However, upon unregistering, the callback function is 
not removed from the list in existing code. As a result, the memory allocated 
for the callback function could accumulate in the {{MetricsSystemImpl}} list. 
In one of our cluster, we have seen a case where there are about 874 MB memory 
retained by {{MetricsSystemImpl}}.
