Janko Heilgeist commented on GERONIMO-4543:
-------------------------------------------

Java6 says "Please use CMSClassUnloadingEnabled in place of 
CMSPermGenSweepingEnabled in the future" if it is started with 
"-XX:+CMSPermGenSweepingEnabled"  so I stopped using this option recently.

I'll admit that this report is not a major issue. I just discovered the leaks 
when I debugged an application. They haven't caused any real problems yet.

> The TransactionTimer$CurrentTime thread inherits the AccessControlContext of 
> the first EAR/WAR/EJB-jar that carries out a transaction. Thus, the 
> particular EAR/WAR/EJB-jar's classloader is prevented from being GCed.
