> Currently in AsyncProcess#sendMultiAction, we only catch the
> RejectedExecutionException and let other error/exception go, which will cause
> decTaskCounter not invoked. Meanwhile, the recommendation for using HTable is
> to close the table in the finally clause, and HTable#close will call
> flushCommits and wait until all task done.
> The problem is when unchecked error/exception like OutOfMemoryError thrown,
> taskSent will never be equal to taskDone, so AsyncProcess#waitUntilDone will
> never return. Especially, if autoflush is set thus no data to flush during
> table close, there would be no rpc call so rpcTimeOut will not break the
> call, and thread will wait there forever.
> In our product env, the unchecked error we observed is
> "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread", and we
> observed the client thread hang for hours
