Buffer and Connection bloat in TNonBlockingServer
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-357
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-357
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Library (C++)
            Reporter: Anthony Giardullo
            Priority: Minor


This patch helps to reduce the amount of memory allocated by 
TNonBlockingServer.   It uses a configurable limit on the number of idle 
connections to keep around, and has a configurable limit on the amount of 
memory to keep allocated in the readBuffer when the connection is closed.  This 
fix is in use at Facebook and has significantly reduced the amount of memory 
used by Scribe (https://sourceforge.net/projects/scribeserver/).

See THRIFT-265 for another memory usage fix which reallocates input/output 
buffers every 512 reads/writes.  THRIFT-265(and THRIFT-354) and this patch can 
be used together to tune the amount of memory used.  The buffer_limit patch is 
especially useful for the case when there are many idle TConnections with large 
buffers allocated.
