hi,

i found some exceptions in my application log -

 org.eclipse.emf.cdo.util.CommitException: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread
	at org.eclipse.emf.internal.cdo.transaction.CDOTransactionImpl.commit(CDOTransactionImpl.java:1148)

	at org.eclipse.emf.internal.cdo.transaction.CDOTransactionImpl.commit(CDOTransactionImpl.java:1134)


at first glance a memory leak in my application - but what makes me suspicious is, that it happens only on cdo transaction commits ...

after the failed commit everything works as expected again (commits also) until it happens again a few hours or days later.

(its a vaadin-webapp running within apache tomcat on a windows server)

any ideas?

thanks in advance,
martin

Not really without more infos. Is it possible that you capture a list of the active threads when this happens?

btw. i'm working with 4.1.0

i added the threads to my logs and got interesting results.

after starting my application i always edit the same field of the same entity and commit my transaction.
after the 1st commit i get 17 "InvalidationRunner-View ${count}" - threads
2nd: 34 (+17)
3rd: 52 (+18)
4th: 71 (+19)
5th: 91 (+20)
6th: 112 (+21)
...

the number of "pool-1-thread-${count2}" threads is increased by 1 with every commit.

all other threads seem to be constantly - i compared names and counts.

hope this helps,
cheers,
martin

Is it possible that you open a new CDOTransaction for each commit? Why is that?

And if so, is t possible that you don't close() it properly?

no.

every user gets exactly 1 transaction, which is closed when he closes the browser (tab).

so i extend my logging and repeat my tests:

now i close my browser tab ...

(the session was closed too)

... and open a new one to change and commit some data:

as you can see, the number of invalidation threads is increasing and increasing.
closing transaction and session stops many threads, but not all of them.
so the outofmemory exceptions seems to be unavoidable after a while.

maybe it would be better to use 1 session for all my users - what do you think?

but i'm not sure if this can solve my problem ...

cheers, martin

p.s.
the "pool-1-thread-${count2}" do not seem to be a problem, looks like the GC cares about. but i didn't investigate that more closely.

Is it possible that you set a breakpoint in CDOViewImpl.doDeactivate() and try to find out what this code does for you:

@Override
protected void doDeactivate() throws Exception
{
CDOViewRegistryImpl.INSTANCE.deregister(this);

if (invalidationRunner != null)
{
LifecycleUtil.deactivate(invalidationRunner, OMLogger.Level.WARN);
invalidationRunner = null;
}

Yeah, that would save a lot of the heap space! The session with the revision cache is probably the most expensive client
facility. But note that currently the user information (if used at all) is bound to the session. By reusing the session
all transactions would persist that userID (if used). This could probably be made more flexible with a feature request.

BTW. I don't believe that reusing the session would have an impact on the threading problem because the thread in
question is maintained by the transactions.

Have you thought about this different design:

Use a single read-only CDOView for all users (and their read operations) and keep it open until you close the session.
For every user interaction that involves modifications to the model open a new transaction, do all the changes there,
then commit and close it.

thank you eike for guiding me in the right direction Wink

after debugging for a while i could find the problem, i'll try to describe:
i modified my code as suggested to have just 1 session for all users. was done quickly and worked well, but i was surprised when i repeated my tests.
after the first application session (which does not mean cdosession) transaction #1 was closed, after the 2nd something like transaction #30.

but by debugging into the code i found out, that no unexpected transactions were created meanwhile, just one for the new application session.

but what my app did, was creating views (to show, which user created data at which date) ... and yes, these views were not closed ... (in this case i was relieing on the GC)

so i'll fix that, and also think about your proposal to use one view for all users and starting a transaction when needed.

thanks a lot,
martin

fixed the bug and tested again (still having one open transaction for every application session)

for every open transaction i see one invalidation thread which stops when the transaction is closed. correct?
