使用 Java 创建内存泄漏

I just had an interview, and I was asked to create a memory leak with Java. Needless to say I felt pretty dumb having no clue on how to even start creating one.

What would an example be?

    Here's a good way to create a true memory leak (objects inaccessible by running code but still stored in memory) in pure Java:

    1. The application creates a long-running thread (or use a thread pool to leak even faster).
    2. The thread loads a class via an (optionally custom) ClassLoader.
    3. The class allocates a large chunk of memory (e.g. new byte[1000000]), stores a strong reference to it in a static field, and then stores a reference to itself in a ThreadLocal. Allocating the extra memory is optional (leaking the Class instance is enough), but it will make the leak work that much faster.
    4. The thread clears all references to the custom class or the ClassLoader it was loaded from.
    5. Repeat.

    This works because the ThreadLocal keeps a reference to the object, which keeps a reference to its Class, which in turn keeps a reference to its ClassLoader. The ClassLoader, in turn, keeps a reference to all the Classes it has loaded.

    (It was worse in many JVM implementations, especially prior to Java 7, because Classes and ClassLoaders were allocated straight into permgen and were never GC'd at all. However, regardless of how the JVM handles class unloading, a ThreadLocal will still prevent a Class object from being reclaimed.)

    A variation on this pattern is why application containers (like Tomcat) can leak memory like a sieve if you frequently redeploy applications that happen to use ThreadLocals in any way. (Since the application container uses Threads as described, and each time you redeploy the application a new ClassLoader is used.)

    Update: Since lots of people keep asking for it, here's some example code that shows this behavior in action.
