> The RepositoryImpl uses a thread executor with a default thread factory for 
> some background threads. These threads should use the jackrabbit class loader 
> (the classloader used for loading jackrabbit)
> as thread context classloader. Currently the classloader is used which causes 
> a new thread to be greated.
> For example in combination with Sling the following can happen: a jsp in 
> sling initiates a save to jackrabbit, this causes the indexing to start which 
> is done in a background thread. A new thread is taken from the pool and the 
> thread context class loader is set to the thread context classloader of the 
> jsp/sling. If now Sling is undeployed, jackrabbit still holds this class 
> loader. This creates a hugh memory leak.
