/**
 * Java's builtin ThreadLocal has a serious flaw: it can take an arbitrarily long amount of time to
 * dereference the things you had stored in it, even once the ThreadLocal instance itself is no
 * longer referenced. This is because there is single, master map stored for each thread, which all
 * ThreadLocals share, and that master map only periodically purges "stale" entries.
 *
 * 

While not technically a memory leak, because eventually the memory will be reclaimed, it can * take a long time and you can easily hit OutOfMemoryError because from the GC's standpoint the * stale entries are not reclaimable. * *

This class works around that, by only enrolling WeakReference values into the ThreadLocal, and * separately holding a hard reference to each stored value. When you call {@link #close}, these * hard references are cleared and then GC is freely able to reclaim space by objects stored in it. * *

We can not rely on {@link ThreadLocal#remove()} as it only removes the value for the caller * thread, whereas {@link #close} takes care of all threads. You should not call {@link #close} * until all threads are done using the instance. * * @lucene.internal */ public class CloseableThreadLocal implements Closeable { private ThreadLocal> t = new ThreadLocal<>(); // Use a WeakHashMap so that if a Thread exits and is // GC'able, its entry may be removed: private Map hardRefs = new WeakHashMap<>(); // Increase this to decrease frequency of purging in get: private static final int PURGE_MULTIPLIER = 20; // On each get or set we decrement this; when it hits 0 we // purge.
