> In digging on the hard-to-understand OOMEs with
> TestDirectPostingsFormat ... I found (thank you YourKit) that
> RandomizedContext (in randomizedtesting JAR) seems to be holding onto
> all threads created by the test.  The test does create many very short
> lived threads (testing the thread safety of the postings format), in
> BasePostingsFormatTestCase.testTerms), and somehow these seem to tie
> up a lot (~100 MB) of RAM in RandomizedContext.contexts static map.
> For now I've disabled all thread testing (committed {{false &&}} inside
> {{BPFTC.testTerms}}), but hopefully we can fix the root cause here, eg
> when a thread exits can we clear it from that map?
