Guava: replacing a ConcurrentHashMap – code.dblock.org | tech blog
Negotiate is a multi-step protocol. After an initial request the Waffle authentication provider will add an entry to a hashtable mapping the new connection IDs to a newly obtained security context. At a subsequent step, the security context is retrieved from the hastable and used to continue the authentication protocol. If the connection is abandoned half way through this process, a handle will remain in the hashtable forever.
One of the solutions is to swap the hash structure for a cache that expires entries. I found Guava (aka Google-collections). Here’s my new concurrent hashmap with expiration.
ConcurrentMap<String, CtxtHandle> _continueContexts = new MapMaker() .expiration(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS) .makeMap();It couldn’t have been easier.
