CLOUDSTACK-9564: Fix memory leaks in VmwareContextPool In a recent management server crash, it was found that the largest contributor to memory leak was in VmwareContextPool where a registry is held (arraylist) that grows indefinitely. The list itself is not used anywhere or consumed. There exists a hashmap (pool) that returns a list of contexts for existing poolkey (address/username) that is used instead. This fixes the issue by removing the arraylist registry, and limiting the length of the context list for a given poolkey. @blueorangutan package You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/shapeblue/cloudstack vmware-memleak-fix Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1729.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #1729 ---- commit dfabcc8a5eb0f0b78003c2f849f32e899a74ad48 Author: Rohit Yadav <rohit.ya...@shapeblue.com> Date: 2016-10-25T09:50:33Z CLOUDSTACK-9564: Fix memory leaks in VmwareContextPool In a recent management server crash, it was found that the largest contributor to memory leak was in VmwareContextPool where a registry is held (arraylist) that grows indefinitely.
