---------------------------------------

             Summary: Buffer pool may not be releasing old buffers
                 Key: GEODE-1749
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-1749
             Project: Geode
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: messaging
            Reporter: Bruce Schuchardt


In Buffers.java there is this comment that needs to be investigated:

{noformat}
  /**
   * A soft reference that remembers the size of the byte buffer it refers to.
   * TODO Dan - I really think this should be a weak reference. The JVM
   * doesn't seem to clear soft references if it is getting low on direct
   * memory.
   */
  private static class BBSoftReference extends SoftReference<ByteBuffer> {
{noformat}
