Carsten Ziegeler commented on FELIX-4663:
-----------------------------------------

I've added some code in rev 1629402 which should handle the case for the 
RejectedExecutionException. Not sure though if we should just catch REE or all 
exceptions (like it is now)

> Potential memory leak in AsyncDeliveryTask

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Event Admin
>    Affects Versions: eventadmin-1.3.2
>            Reporter: Hartmut Lang

>             Fix For: eventadmin-1.4.4

> EventAdmin 1.3.2 can create an OutOfMemory condition caused by not delivered 
> async events.
> The problem can occur if an interrupted thread issues an async event (e.g. 
> log-event).
> In EventAdmin 1.3.2 the async-delivery uses DefaultThreadPool based on 
> PooledExecutor. 
> If the already interrupted thread enters the execute-method in PooledExecutor 
> an InterruptedException is thrown before the TaskExecutor was added to the 
> Thread-Pool.
> This Exception is catched(not handled, only logged) in the DefaultThreadPool.
> As a result the TaskExecuter was not scheduled in the ThreadPool but is still 
> part of the m_running_threads.
> All new events are added to the pool of the TaskExecuter, adding in a 
> increasing LinkedList. The TaskExecutor is never started again. Memory is 
> leaking.
> Seems that 1.4.x is not vulnerable related to interrupted threads. But the 
> same catch-and-not-handle block is used in 1.4.x.
