> NIO's leaky, per-thread caching of direct buffers in combination with IncomingTcpConnection's eager buffering of messages leads to leakage of large amounts of native heap. Details in [1]. More on the root cause in [2]. Even though it doesn't fix the leak, attached patch has been found to alleviate the problem by keeping the size of each direct buffer modest.
