Investigation shows it's:
boolean cachingPossible =
request.getHttpServletRequest().getMethod().equals("GET");
throwing NPE because request.getHttpServletRequest().getMethod() sometimes
returns null (the http request is there, the method is apparently unknown).
This is happening in the Jetty started from the IDE with the Start class.
Anyways, the fix is simple, as they say, always use the
"StringConstant".equals(variableString)
when checking for string equality against a constant.
