Philippe Mouawad commented on OFBIZ-2186:
-----------------------------------------

Hello Again,
Concerning the Limitation on cache.
On a big SITE with a rather important catalog, not limiting the cache leads to 
a lot of OutOfMemory .
We experienced these problems at first that's why we are limiting more and more 
caches.
So you should not think that cache limitation concerns only few caches.

Philippe.

> 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.
