The headers cache (StringCache) cause a memory leak #515
As described in #326 , there's a memory leak in the StringCache class, because the stringCache map values accumulate over time. Commit https://github.com/uniVocity/univocity-parsers/commit/43bed5110e75497fb2ded96912a87c4a9d0841fd was supposed to fix it, but it didn't - as it fixed only the put method, which isn't used in practice. The correct method to fix is get.
We encountered this in our application - this leads to a very high GC.
An example of our heap dump:
