I'm digging into an issue with OOM errors and a memory leak of some kind using the java-client and jdbc connections to Pinot. Eventually our Spring Boot application dies with: Exception: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError thrown from the UncaughtExceptionHandler in thread "AsyncHttpClient-timer-1820-1" In digging into this I found https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client/issues/1658, the important part (considering I see hundreds of threads marked AsyncHttpClient-timer-X-1) of which is: AsyncHttpClient-x-x: I/O (twice number of cores) AsyncHttpClient-timer: timer for timeouts (only one) Any different number means you're creating multiple clients. I dug into the Pinot code where this issue seems to be coming from and found where it's creating an AsyncHttpClient: [https://github.com/apache/pinot/blob/3e1aba37deee21ccb2e764afce789e463098246f/pino[…]/org/apache/pinot/client/JsonAsyncHttpPinotClientTransport.java](https://github.com/apache/pinot/blob/3e1aba37deee21ccb2e764afce789e463098246f/pinot-clients/pinot-java-client/src/main/java/org/apache/pinot/client/JsonAsyncHttpPinotClientTransport.java#L69) [https://github.com/apache/pinot/blob/3e1aba37deee21ccb2e764afce789e463098246f/pino[…]rg/apache/pinot/client/controller/PinotControllerTransport.java](https://github.com/apache/pinot/blob/3e1aba37deee21ccb2e764afce789e463098246f/pinot-clients/pinot-jdbc-client/src/main/java/org/apache/pinot/client/controller/PinotControllerTransport.java#L70) https://github.com/apache/pinot/blob/master/pinot-clients/pinot-java-client/src/main/java/org/apache/pinot/client/BrokerCache.java#L120 The problem here as I see it is that the docs for AsyncHttpClient say `AsyncHttpClient instances are intended to be global resources that share the same lifecycle as the application. Typically, AHC will usually underperform if you create a new client for each request, as it will create new threads and connection pools for each.` which the Pinot java client is clearly not doing, and looking at the classes that create these client it's up to other code that's using them to close them. I think this is resulting in client (and their respective threadpools) being kept around in parallel causing memory leakage. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
