Was causing an ever-increasing number of ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask objects (and other related objects) to be retained.
It was treating a
ThreadPoolTaskScheduleras a poller, which seems to have caused 10s of millions of these objects to accumulate (corresponds approx to the 1 object per 10ms polling interval for the 7 days it had been running).
