[rabbitmq-discuss] Problem with RabbitMQ Java Client (Memory leak)

[Yogesh Ketkar]

I am using rabbitmq-java-client-bin-2.7.1/rabbitmq-client.jar with
RabbitMQ 2.7.1 Server.

Just run this code

public static void main(String[] argv) throws IOException {
    ConnectionFactory f = new ConnectionFactory();
    Connection c = f.newConnection();
    for(int i = 0; i < 20000; ++i) {
        Channel ch = c.createChannel();
        ch.close();
    }
    System.gc();
    while(true) {}
}

While program is running, observe the memory usage, it keeps on
increasing
Get process id and do following
jmap -dump:format=b,file=yo.bin  <pid>
jhat jhat -J-mx768m -stack false yo.bin
Once jhat brings up http server, go here
http://localhost:7000/showInstanceCounts/

20001 instances of class com.rabbitmq.client.impl.AMQCommand
20001 instances of class com.rabbitmq.client.impl.CommandAssembler
20000 instances of class com.rabbitmq.client.ShutdownSignalException
20000 instances of class com.rabbitmq.client.impl.AMQImpl$Channel
$Close
20000 instances of class com.rabbitmq.client.impl.ChannelN
20000 instances of class com.rabbitmq.client.impl.ConsumerDispatcher

In-spite of closing all the channels, not only channels but associated
objects (ShutdownSignalException, ChannelClose) continue to consume
memory.
For sure, knowing this now, I will use channelCreate call sparingly.

Is there a way to remedy this situation?
What is also worrying is instances of AMQCommand, so would this be the
case for each and every call of client library?
