David E. Jones commented on OFBIZ-2186:
---------------------------------------

Thank you for the additional information.

Could you try the changes in SVN rev 751619? With this the LRUMap is made 
synchronized using the Collections.synchronizedMap method when it is first 
created, and that should make it thread safe (except for certain iteration 
related operations, but we aren't doing those with the memoryTable field as far 
as I can tell).

This should fix the synchronized get problem, and the separately monitored get 
vs put/remove problem.

> In our production system, we had an OutOfMemoryError.
> I analyzed the generated Heap Dump and found the following:
> The cache entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember retains a 
> heap of 369314128 Bytes.
> The LRUMap hold by this object is occupying this space (369314128) and this 
> object has a stange state:
> - maxSize is set to 5000 (as set in the cache.properties)
> - size is 128930 => PROBLEM
> IN cache.properties:
> entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.expireTime=3600000
> entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.useSoftReference=true
> entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.maxInMemory=5000
> entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.maxSize=7500
> I analyzed the code of LRUMap and its usage in CacheLineTable and IMHO the 
> bug is a missing synchonized  in get():
> public CacheLine<V> get(Object key) {
>         if (key == null) {
>             if (Debug.verboseOn()) Debug.logVerbose("In CacheLineTable tried 
> to get with null key, using NullObject" + this.cacheName, module);
>         }
>         return getNoCheck(key);
>     }
> Since LRUMap extends LinkedHashMap, if you look at get method, it changes the 
> state of the Map by calling e.recordAccess(this):
>     public V get(Object key) {
>         Entry<K,V> e = (Entry<K,V>)getEntry(key);
>         if (e == null)
>             return null;
>         e.recordAccess(this);
>         return e.value;
>     }
> So the default of synchronization corrupts the state of LRUMap which grows 
> indefinitely
> I will submit a patch for this on the trunk.
