Dave Marion commented on ACCUMULO-4169: --------------------------------------- [~bfloss] [~ivan.bella] I'd like to come to some consensus on the "in-use" issue. You have suggested removing contexts that don't have running scans that use them in an attempt to reduce the used perm gen space. [~ctubbsii] mentioned that perm gen space is not as big of an issue with Java 8 (and likely beyond). So, the question is, I think, is using -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled in Java 7 sufficient if we remove Contexts that are no longer defined in the configuration? > TabletServer.config contextCleaner removes contexts that are not set on a > table > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ACCUMULO-4169 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-4169 > Project: Accumulo > Issue Type: Bug > Components: tserver > Affects Versions: 1.8.0 > Reporter: Dave Marion > > ACCUMULO-3948 added a feature where you could define a context in the > Accumulo configuration, not set it on a table, and use it in a Scanner. > However, there is a runnable created n TabletServer.config() that runs every > 60 seconds that closes context that are not defined on a table.
