Catalin Alexandru Zamfir commented on HADOOP-8396:
--------------------------------------------------

It ran for a while and died at 3881 threads. There's definitively a problem here in how Hadoop handles native threads.

> It seems to be a memory leak. We were opening 5 - 10 buffers to different paths when writing and closing them. We've tested that those buffers do not overrun. And they don't. But watching the application continue writing, we saw that over a period of 5 to 6 hours, it kept constantly increasing in memory, not by the average of 8MB buffer that we've set, but my small values. I'm reading the code and it seems there's a memory leak somewhere, in the way Hadoop does buffer allocation. While we specifically close the buffers if the count of open buffers is above 5 (meaning 5 * 8MB per buffer) this bug still happens.
> Can it be fixed? As you can see from the strack trace, it writes a "fan-out" path of the type you see in the strack trace. We've let it execute till about 500M records, when this error blew. It's a blocker as these writers need to be production-grade ready, while they're not due to this native buffer allocation that when executing large amounts of writes, seems to generate a memory leak.
