[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-3382) Memory leak when files are not
cleanly closed
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3382?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12596529#action_12596529 ]
Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-3382:
------------------------------------------------
abandonFileInProgress() in ClientProtocol is deprecated. We should remove it as well.

> {{FSNamesystem.internalReleaseCreate()}} in invoked on files that are open for writing but not cleanly closed. e.g. when client invokes {{abandonFileInProgress()}} or when lease expires. It deletes the last block if it has a length of zero. The block is deleted from the file INode but not from {{blocksMap}}. Then leaves a reference to such file until NameNode is restarted. When this happens HADOOP-3381 multiplies amount of memory leak.
