hmm... sorry, I host java webapps for customers, and this is my last
problem. I mean a typical webapp contains approx. 100 classes and 50
jsps? Most of the classes are always in use and therefore in memory as
well as the jsps. I don't really see the problem here. I mean before I
run out of memory for JSPs, I will run out of memory for classes....
