Hilton Gibson commented on DS-1527:
-----------------------------------

This would be a very welcome fix for resource lean systems and for system 
performance. Our memory usage shot up after the upgrade to 1.8.2 in Dec 2012. 
See screenshot attached.

> CachingServiceImpl contains a memory leak, or to be more precise the nested 
> class CachingServiceRequestInterceptor does. If you want to confirm this then 
> use a profiler and watch map 'requestCachesMap' grow, or use the 'old school' 
> method and stick some debugging code in the 
> onStart() method. The onStart() method and its partner onEnd() are invoked 
> indirectly by DSpaceWebappServletFilter, however, it appears onEnd() does not 
> get invoked for requests of type FORWARD or INCLUDE. This results in lots of 
> undeleted entries in requestCachesMap.
> Ideally it would be good to understand why onEnd() does not get invoked for 
> all request types. However, if nobody can come up with an explanation then 
> the easy fix for this is to delete the references to FORWARD and INCLUDE in 
> the filter mapping definition in web.xml. If nobody can think of a reason not 
> to do so I'll provide a pull request to that effect.
> Cheers, Robin.
