Description
Reduces memory usage of metrics update tasks.
Because the tasks iterated over large datasets (i.e. all projects, or all components of a project), the DataNucleus L1 cache kept growing. Prevent this from happening by evicting objects from the cache after every iteration.
Also, because setting a
FetchGroup
onQuery
level doesn't overwrite theFetchGroup
onPersistenceManager
level, too many fields were being loaded. UseScopedCustomization
to overwrite the PM'sFetchGroup
when querying objects for metrics calculation.Addressed Issue
N/A
Additional Details
Based on the fixes for repository meta analysis introduced in #4311.
