[jira] [Created] (CASSANDRA-5624) Memory leak in SerializingCache

Jonathan Ellis created CASSANDRA-5624:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Memory leak in SerializingCache
                 Key: CASSANDRA-5624
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5624
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.1.1
            Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
            Assignee: Ryan McGuire


A customer reported a memory leak when off-heap row cache is enabled.

I gave them a patch against 1.1.9 to troubleshoot (https://github.com/jbellis/cassandra/commits/row-cache-finalizer).  This confirms that row cache is responsible.  Here is a sample of the log:

{noformat}
