Hi all,
I saw the mention “email to the list before creating a jira ticket” only when I had the whole ticket written, so I did already submit the ticket: [LDEV-3701] - Lucee
But here it goes…
I received some odd Out Of Memory Errors coming from my servers. I noticed some requests triggered a sudden drop of the available JVM memory to zero, leading to the OOME. After much investigation, I found out it had to do with the deserialization of session data stored in the database.
If you use a JVM with 2GB or less, and run these steps, you will get an OOME:
<!--- JavaConverter is used in Lucee to deserialize database session data --->
<cfset my_IKStorageValue = createObject('java', 'lucee.runtime.converter.JavaConverter').deserialize( '== see issue; very large base64 value ==' ) />
<cfdump var="#my_IKStorageValue.getValue()#" />
The memory issue happens at IKStorageValue.getValue() by the way, not at the deserialize().
The session data itself is around 10 keys, containing strings and 2 structs with more data. One of those structs is the form scope, and when looking at the output of the cfdump above (using -Xmx4096m), I can see that form scope is seen as “Struct (soft)”.
That might be the problematic part?
Regards, Paul Klinkenberg
