--- Comment #15 from Sylvain Laurent <sylvain.laur...@gmail.com> 2010-11-25 16:25:32 EST --- Though my proposed patch renews threads in the pool, there are actually 2 other types of threads that can prevent an application from being garbage collected if it has ThreadLocal-related leaks : - the "main" thread (the one when starting up tomcat) - the ContainerBackgroundProcessor thread (- the shutdown hook thread too, but since the JVM is shutting down it does not really matter) - in an embedded scenario, the thread of the "containing" application Currently when a webapp is started or stopped, the lifecycle callbacks into the webapp (context listener, filters, servlet) are executed by one of those threads. I'm working on a patch where I spawn a thread that runs just during those callbacks then shuts down, and so far it prevents such leaks. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
