Description
After shutdown embeded activemq broker with JDBC store, 2 'ActiveMQ JDBC PA Scheduled Task' is still alive.
Because the 2 thread's Thread factory is object of JDBCPersistenceAdapter's inner class, so the object of JDBCPersistenceAdapter can be reached from the 2 threads, JDBCPersistenceAdapter has a field point to BrokerService. So the instance of BrokerService can be reached from the 2 threads.
So the stopped brokerService cannot be GC.
The root cause is that when stopping JDBCPersistenceAdapter, only cancelling cleanupTicket without shutdown clockDaemon, that's why the 2 threads are still alive.
According to http://activemq.apache.org/how-do-i-restart-embedded-broker.html, it's better (more reliable) to instantiate the broker again instead of reuse old broker. So if I restart embeded broker, there will be 1 more BrokerService in memory. I think it's memory leak.
