(assuming EJB1.1)
Let's be very specific here. No, your session should not load the JDBC
driver, since you should acquire it (through a DataSource) from JNDI.
That said, to really answer what I think you're asking (might be totally
off here, let me know):
You are correct that the JDBC driver will be loaded by the EJB servers
classloader, even though the bean is making the actual use of the class.
This is standard ClassLoader-behavior: the topmost classloader that can
access a class with a given name will do so.
