> Memory leak in Felix Framework Security extension
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FELIX-6591
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-6591
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Framework Security
> Reporter: Chris Rankin
> Priority: Major
> Labels: MemoryLeak, memory-leak
>
> Our project loads and unloads a lot of bundles over time, and we have noticed
> that the JVM quickly spends the majority of its time collecting its garbage.
> We have identified the Framework Security extension as one source of this
> problem. Specifically, the suspiciously large number of `Conditions` and
> `Permissions` objects in every heap dump.
> The `Permissions` objects are _definitely_ being leaking because
> `Permission.Entry.hashCode()` should use `Arrays.hashCode(entry)` instead of
> `entry.hashCode()` when `entry` is an array.
> I have also reimplemented `Conditions` to listen for
> `BundleEvent.UNINSTALLED` instead of relying on multiple `WeakHashMap`s. This
> is consistent with a TODO comment for this class, and allows the `Conditions`
> obejcts to be deleted _immediately_ instead of waiting for the garbage
> collector to realise that they are no longer referenced.
