Possible memory leak using MONITOR command #585

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What version of Redis you are using, in what kind of Operating System?

Redis 2.2.8 32bit mode

4 x Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2214 HE

16GB RAM

# uname -a
Linux XXXXX 2.6.18-238.9.1.el5 #1 SMP Fri Mar 18 12:42:39 EDT 2011 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

# cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.6 (Tikanga)

What is the problem you are experiencing?

Possible memory leak using MONITOR command.

I've built a program that opens a TCP connection and sends "MONITOR\r\n". It 
reads every line and performs some processing. The processing is a bit slow, so 
I think that there are a lot of things that redis-server is trying to send to 
the client but the client does not read fast enough.

When this happens, the used_memory_rss grows and never decreases. The 
used_memory/used_memory_human does not changes.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Send the "MONITOR" command from a slow client to a very fast server so that the 
client cant keep up the pace of reading as fast as the server is sending.

Do you have an INFO output? Please past it here.

I have a custom built tool called "redis-top" that show me some info of my 
redis cluster.

It smells a lot like your MONITOR client isn't reading fast enough or your 
network connection isn't fast enough. To verify, try running "redis-cli MONITOR 
> /dev/null".

This sounds like the same bug I reported in 525. 
http://code.google.com/p/redis/issues/detail?id=525
Redis doesn't limit the amount of memory allocated for client buffers, which 
would make sense that I see it on slow pub/sub clients and you see it with 
monitor (a kind of subscription).

Yeah, my client may not be reading fast enough, but that does mean that Redis 
should allocate a large amount of memory and never free it afterward...

This is caused by memory fragmentation. Reclaiming memory after the top of the 
heap is grown is very difficult, as new allocations may have been done there. 
Redis itself can't do anything about it, but using a different allocator can 
decrease fragmentation drastically. We've seen good reports of people using 
jemalloc. There is a separate branch available that includes jemalloc support: 
https://github.com/antirez/redis/tree/2.2-jemalloc-static. It is not 100% up to 
date with the latest 2.2, but good enough (unless you can tell from the 
changelog that you need the latest 2.2, in that case I can update that branch 
for you). Can you report back here if Redis with jemalloc has better results in 
your scenario? Thanks.

That is indeed weird.. Not sure why that is happening.. What I forgot to 
mention in my previous post is that jemalloc only works with 64-bit binaries. I 
see in your top-post that you use a 32-bit build. The 32-bit build always uses 
a little less memory than the 64-bit build because of the smaller pointer 
overhead.

Building a 64-bit version of Redis with jemalloc is not done by default, but 
requires setting an env var:

    USE_JEMALLOC=yes make

By the way: I would try this scenario on a development machine, or as single 
instance side-by-side with your cluster before deploying this everywhere. You 
never know what happens for a particular OS/dataset/config.

I have built Redis like this:

make 32bit USE_JEMALLOC=yes

And changed the Makefile to this:

../deps/jemalloc/lib/libjemalloc.a:
        cd ../deps/jemalloc && ./configure CFLAGS="-std=gnu99 -Wall -pipe -g3 -fvisibility=hidden -O3 -funroll-loops -m32" --with-jemalloc-prefix=je_ --enable-cc-silence && $(MAKE) lib/libjemalloc.a

I'm comfortable using the jemalloc branch in 32 bits mode since I have already 
use it for quite some time a few weeks ago and it seemed to work fine.

Here is my INFO using jemalloc int 32 bits mode:

Cool! I noticed a couple compiler warnings about a field not being large 
enough, so I assumed it would crash hard when compiled with -m32. So: changing 
to jemalloc resulted in the memory being reclaimed by the OS after some time, 
correct?

Redis 2.4 can also be compiled with 32 bit target plus jemalloc, just with: 
make 32bit.

I tried a few days ago and it passess all the tests without issues.

Btw I think the issue is just the result of a memory spike that is not 
reclaimed by the allocator, but will be used again when the spike will happen 
again, so should not be a big deal at all. Even if it is cooler an allocator 
that is also able to effectively reclaim memory... of course :)

Well, I think I'll have to use the MONITOR command with parsimony then :)
Thanks for the discussion.

Daniel: you don't need that actually! What you need is to split your processing 
in two halves. One reads from MONITOR without waiting for processing, and 
writing all the MONITOR output into a file. The other one reads the file 
processing the output. This way your processing can be slower than the MONITOR 
output without issues.

Swapping in jemalloc appeared to do the trick here. Closing.
