>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: util
>    Affects Versions: 0.20.2
>         Environment: OS:Linux, Linux-user limited by maximum number of open file descriptors (for example: ulimit -n shows 1024)
>            Reporter: Alexander Bondar
>            Priority: Minor

> According to Sun JVM (up to 7) bug http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4167874 - The JarFile objects created by sun.net.www.protocol.jar.JarFileFactory never get garbage collected, even if the classloader that loaded them goes away.
> So, if linux-user has limitation on maximum number of open file descriptors (for example: ulimit -n shows 1024) and performs RunJar.main(...) over thousands of JARs that include other nested JARs (also loaded by ClassLoader) within single JVM, RunJar.main(...) throws following exception: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /some-file.txt (Too many open files)
