Leonardo Uribe commented on MYFACES-3510:
-----------------------------------------
Well, do you have a better explanation? You could try replace SoftReference
with WeakReference. If that change improves the situation, let me know and I'll
change the code.

> We've seen an application classloader memory leak due to the new class
> javax.faces.component._PropertyDescriptorHolder class introduced in version
> 2.1.6
> This class holds a reference to a Method of a component loaded by the
> application classloader. The memory leak shows up when the
> _PropertyDescriptorHolder is stored in the _ComponentAttributesMap class that
> is loaded by the system class loader.
> You should use a WeakReference instead of storing the direct reference to the
> Method
