Philip Luppens commented on WW-4146:
------------------------------------
Exactly, I don't think disabling this cache will do much good. What is probably
better is a) to get rid of the commons implementation, and b) to use soft/weak
references for keys/values so they get evicted if the memory usage is reaching
critical levels.
Can't we start using Guava? It has a pretty nice caching implementation to
offer[1].

> in class com.opensymphony.xwork2.ognl.OgnlUtil, code :
> {code:java}
> tree = expressions.get(expression);
> if (tree == null) {
> tree = Ognl.parseExpression(expression);
> expressions.putIfAbsent(expression, tree);
> }
> {code}
> every parameter in the request cached in field expressions which is an
> instances of ConcurrentMap<String, Object>, use parameterName as key. so i
> construct huge different parameters that has different name (like "abc[123],
> abc[124]" ), they all cached in expressions, this cause outofmemory error,
> and let map acted like a list .
