BufferManager reserved thread local can keep buffermanager references alive --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: TEIID-2359 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-2359 Project: Teiid Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Query Engine Affects Versions: 8.0 Reporter: Steven Hawkins Assignee: Steven Hawkins Fix For: 8.3 The most common implementation of ThreadLocal holds does not garbarge collect ThreadLocal values when the ThreadLocal goes out of scope - only when the Thread stops. Thus the BufferManager reserved threadlocal being a non-static inner class is inadvertently keeping a reference alive. Marked as starting with Teiid 8.0 as selective Teiid restarts (which is how multiple instances are introduced) are not performed in the 7.x series.
