Recently in the gate we have seen a trace on some work-in-progress patches: OperationalError: (pymysql.err.OperationalError) (1040, u'Too many connections') and at least one operator has reported that the number of database connections increased significantly going from Mitaka to Newton. It was suspected that the increase was caused by creating new oslo.db transaction context managers on-the-fly when switching database connections for cells. Comparing the dstat --tcp output of runs of the gate-tempest-dsvm-neutron-full-ubuntu-xenial job with and without caching of the database connections showed a difference of 445 active TCP connections and 1495 active TCP connections, respectively [1]. This adds caching of the oslo.db transaction context managers and the oslo.messaging transports to avoid creating a large number of objects that are not being garbage-collected as expected. Closes-Bug: #1691545 [1] https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DIfFfX3kaA_SRoCM-aO7BN4IBEShChXLztOBFeKryt4/edit?usp=sharing Change-Id: I17e0eb836dd87aac5859f506e7d771d42753d31a |
