Description

When a gateway sender is stopped, events received are stored in a member variable of the sender (tmpDroppedEvents) to be later sent to secondary gateway senders to remove these dropped events from their queues.

This events use heap memory from the member and could eventually fill up the available memory.

See RFC https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GEODE/Avoid+the+queuing+of+dropped+events+by+the+primary+gateway+sender+when+the+gateway+sender+is+stopped
