I was wondering if this rule is not a bit the absolute. I think that threads which are garanteed to stop in a a relativily short time by them self could logically just as well not be a daemon, and can simply finish their job first if someone touches web.xml. Is there any other difference between daemon and non-daemon threads besides this specific property of them (perhaps in terms of efficiency)?
