> [Java] FlightClient should not create a child allocator
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-5063

> Project: Apache Arrow

> Components: FlightRPC, Java
> Reporter: Bryan Cutler

> I ran into a problem when testing out Flight using the ExampleFlightServer
> with InMemoryStore producer.
> A client will iterate over endpoints and locations to get the streams, and
> the example creates a new client for each location. The only way to close the
> allocator in the FlightClient is to close the FlightClient, which also closes
> the read channel. If the location is the same for each FlightStream (as is
> the case for the InMemoryStore), then it seems like grpc will reuse the
> channel, so closing one read client will shutdown the channel and the
> remaining FlightStreams cannot be read.
> If an allocator was created by the owner of the FlightClient, then the client
> would not need to close it and this problem would be avoided. I believe other
> Flight classes do not create child allocators either, so this change would be
> consistent.
