[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-2436) Session-scoped SFSB which holds entities leaks memory

[Pete Muir (JIRA)]

    [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2436?page=comments#action_12403014 ] 
            
Pete Muir commented on JBSEAM-2436:
-----------------------------------

"I expect my entities to be destroyed when the SFSB that holds the entities is destroyed. "

So do I.

"When I'm writing about number of entities I mean the number being held by the JVM seen through a profiler. I used the profiler that comes with Java 6. Always when I write "number of instances" I mean the number being held by the JVM. Maybe this is not correct way to express that. Is the correct expression "number of instances held by the JVM"? "

That would be clearer ;-)

"I have followed the profiler closely and I believe that the correct behaviour would be if I set the session timeout to 10 minutes, after 10 minutes the number of instances should be around the same value as long as the load on the web page is about the same."

This seems sensible. Though I can't say 100% I think it would be true.

"I am not 100% sure but I think that the SFSB do not get destroyed either. But why would that not be a bug?"

This would be a bug. Please try with Seam POJOs rather than EJB3s, then we can isolate the problem to Seam or EJB3.

> Session-scoped SFSB which has entities in an object does not get destroyed. It leads to memory leak  in production. Please read: http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=126542
> The problem appeared after upgrading to Seam 2.0.0.GA. My code worked fine in Seam 1.2.1.
