Tibor Digana commented on SUREFIRE-1147:
----------------------------------------
[~chtimi59]
I think the issue is caused by implementation of class {{LogicalStream}}
because it keeps byte stream of std output in memory until the test-set has
completed.
How do you see this issue?
Have overcome this issue other way around?
> Unbounded memory usage when running MANY tests

> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Maven Surefire Plugin

> I'm writing concurrency tests, checking that this thing is reproducible, that
> other thing isn't, and so on. So i repeat tests MANY times like 100_000 (to
> reproduce the leak, the test project is here:
> https://github.com/vandekeiser/parallel-stream-fork-join-pool)
> I see in VisualVM that the culprit is WrappedReportEntry, which indirectly
> holds references to lots of byte[] and char[] (allocation traces and heap
> dump pics are included in attachment)
> I forked and patched maven-surefire-common, and that makes the leak go. I had
> to replace WrappedReportEntry.original by a singleton fake ReportEntry.
> Bebefore that i had replaced
> Utf8RecodingDeferredFileOutputStream.deferredFileOutputStream by a
> NullOutputStream and the leak was lesser but still here.
> My fork of maven-surefire-common is there:
> https://github.com/vandekeiser/maven-surefire/tree/master/maven-surefire-common.
> It IS a patch so i checked the patch checkbox in the issue reporter, but it
> is NOT intended to be distributed of course since it is very brutal and basic.
> Also in my test project i explicitly deactivated reporting, but that doesn't
> make the reporting leak go away at all:
> <disableXmlReport>true</disableXmlReport>
> <printSummary>false</printSummary>
