[jira] [Comment Edited] (KAFKA-9609) Memory Leak in Kafka Producer

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9609?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17049597#comment-17049597 ]

[~sliebau] Is it possible to expose the Metrics so that  we can clear the Topic related Metrics when the topic has been deleted? Can it be considered as an improvement story?

>             Project: Kafka
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: clients, producer 
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.0
>            Reporter: Satish
>            Assignee: Sönke Liebau
>            Priority: Major

> org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.internals.Sender adds Topic Metrics for every topic that we are writing messages to but it never been cleaned up until we close the producer.
> This is an issue if we use single producer and have more number of Dynamic topics (eg: ~ 500 topics per hour) and writing messages to them.  As this Metrics map is getting accumulated for every topic, over a period of time we notice the memory usage gets increased gradually. 
> It can be easily reproducible by writing messages to the more # of dynamic topics using the same KafkaProducer from apache kafka client libraries or KafkaTemplate from Spring.
