Gary Gregory commented on LOG4J2-1122:
--------------------------------------
Thank you for your report Leonid.
What do you mean by "dymanic configuration"?
Do you have a unit test we can use?
Finally, what are you proposing?
- That we add a remove logger API?
- The we use a weak reference map to track loggers?
- Something else?

> Memory leak with dymanic configuration.
> ---------------------------------------

> Key: LOG4J2-1122
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1122
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.2, 2.3
> Reporter: Leonid Kazantsev
>
> There are put to
> {code}private final ConcurrentMap<String, Logger> loggers = new
> ConcurrentHashMap<String, Logger>();
> at LoggerContext
> {code}
> But there is no remove, that's cause memory leak when using dynamic
> configuration. Removing logger from configuration is not removing that logger
> from context.
> Also there is no right way to remove it from context.
> I'm using simple workaround for that issue:
> {code}
> LoggerContext ctx = (LoggerContext) LogManager.getContext(false);
> Field field = LoggerContext.class.getDeclaredField("loggers");
> field.setAccessible(true);
> ConcurrentMap<String, Logger> loggers = (ConcurrentMap<String, Logger>)
> field.get(ctx);
> loggers.remove(loggerName);
> {code}
> Memory leak ~ 1Mb/5000 loggers.
