Hi,

We are using grizzly (version 2.3.21) to perform some HTTP requests. After
those requests have finished, in a thread dump i can still see the response
objects being referenced, and not being garbage collected. Attached is a
screenshot of there references from a heap dump:

In a case where the size of the transferred data is big, i see some heavy
memory usage.

Question is, are those references held on purpose and would be removed
eventually as the application runs or is this a bug that could potentially
cause a memory leak? In any way, i would expect these objects to not be
held by the connection once the http transfer has finished.

Thanks in advance,
Rodro
