4-node manifold cluster, 3-node ZK ensemble for coordination and configuration management
Description
Looking at the stats of the zookeeper cluster, I was struck by the very high node count reported by the ZK stat command which shows there being just over 3.84 MILLION nodes. The number keeps rising as long as the manifold nodes are running. Stopping manifold does NOT reduce the number significantly, nor does restarting the ZK ensemble.
The ZK ensemble was initialised around 20 days ago. Manifold has been running on and off on this cluster since that time.
The flat nature of the manifold node structure in ZK (at least in the dev_1x branch) makes it difficult to identify node names but after tweaking the jute.maxbuffer parameter on the client, I was able to get a list of all nodes. There's a huge number of nodes with the name pattern org.apache.manifoldcf.locks-<Output Connection>:<Hash>.
I could see using this node name pattern used in IncrementalIngester#documentDeleteMultiple and IncrementalIngester#documentRemoveMultiple. However, I'm not expecting any deletions in the tests I've been running recently - perhaps this is part of the duplicate deletion logic which came up in an email thread earlier today? or maybe there's another code path I missed entirely and which creates nodes with names like the above.
