potential memory leak when using ThreadSafeClientConnManager ------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HTTPCLIENT-841 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-841 Project: HttpComponents HttpClient Issue Type: Bug Components: HttpClient Affects Versions: 4.0 Beta 2 Environment: Leopard 10.5.6, Java 1.5.0_16, Jetty 6.1.7 Reporter: Ted Slusser When using ThreadSafeClientConnManager and developing with Jetty using auto-redeploy feature eventually I run into a PermGen out of memory exception. I investigated with YourKit 8.0.6 and found a class loader circular reference in RefQueueWorker. Not really sure what I was doing I made the refQueueHandler non-final and nulled it in the shutdown method of RedQueueWorker. I don't seem to have the problem any longer with circular class loader references.
