Patrik Kleindl commented on KAFKA-7660:
---------------------------------------
[~vvcephei] I can give you a small update: I managed to reproduce a possible
leak even with 2.1.0 by running a very simple test with a single KTable (12
partitions) on 2 instances and kept restarting the second instance.
On every rebalance of the first instance the number of KafkaMetric, MetricName
and String instances increased.
Even manually triggered GCs didnt' reclaim those instances and I was able to
reach 10K++ live objects.
The memory impact was very small but would probably be more relevant with
bigger streams topologies.

> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: metrics, streams
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Patrik Kleindl

> During the analysis of JVM memory two possible issues were shown which I
> would like to bring to your attention:
> 1) Duplicate strings
> Top findings:
> string_content="stream-processor-node-metrics" count="534,277"
> string_content="processor-node-id" count="148,437"
> string_content="stream-rocksdb-state-metrics" count="41,832"
> string_content="punctuate-latency-avg" count="29,681"
>
> "stream-processor-node-metrics" seems to be used in Sensors.java as a
> literal and not interned.
>
> 2) The HashMap parentSensors from
> org.apache.kafka.streams.processor.internals.StreamThread$StreamsMetricsThreadImpl
> was reported multiple times as suspicious for potentially keeping alive a
> lot of objects. In our case the reported size was 40-50MB each.
> I haven't looked too deep in the code but noticed that the class Sensor.java
> which is used as a key in the HashMap does not implement equals or hashCode
> method. Not sure this is a problem though.
>
> The analysis was done with Dynatrace 7.0
> We are running Confluent 5.0/Kafka2.0-cp1 (Brokers as well as Clients)
>
> Screenshots are attached.
