To start with I am not sure this is the right place for posting this problem/behaviur and I am not claiming nither that it is a bug, just something that may bee fragile in Tomcat-6.
What I have noticed is that after a couple of hours traffic I get a large number (20 or more) of threads that are hanging on JIoEndpoint$Worker.await() With Jconsole I get the following stack trace: Name: http-8443-14 State: WAITING on [EMAIL PROTECTED] Total blocked: 0 Total waited: 1 Stack trace: java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method) java.lang.Object.wait(Object.java:485) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Worker.await(JIoEndpoint.java:416) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Worker.run(JIoEndpoint.java:442) java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) I don't know what's the origin for this. There are no special messages in the logs and I can't see any stackdumps from exception during the time when the threads were created. The major traffic during the time has been requesting the same jsp page (pings for validating that the TC is up) that involves very little application code. I suspect that number of worker threads are limited and if this keeps on increasing this will finally crash the TC. It may be a good approach to set a time limit on the worker threads and thereby get it self healing or this may be a TC bug that of course is best if it's fixed.
