Summary: Performance decline/monitoring (x2)

Initial Comment:
A while back, I reported an odd decline in performance
in JBoss when heavy loads were run. The first run would
report fairly impressive throughput. Subsequent runs
would then fall back to a (stable) lesser figure.
 http://www.jboss.org/forums/thread.jsp?forum=51&thread=536
has a discussion of this.

At the time, it looked like the pool manager was the 
culprit. I've been experimenting with different 
management systems and collecting performance results.
And it appears that I'm wrong; the pool behaviour
is a symptom of something else happening withing JBoss.
Fiddling with the logging has produced a minor
improvement in performance, on the order of 5%. 
Different allocation schemes, including a straight 
mutexed free list, has no discernable impact on 
performance. So I've got no fix: Sorry 'bout that.

I've been using the JBoss 2.5 source to do the testing.
And I've also noticed a significant decline in 
throughput from 2.2.2 to 2.5. (This may be due to
no profiling at this stage, though.)

Using identical set-ups: 3 x dual 930 MHz systems
for database (Oracle8/thin client) 100 clients and
a version of the TPCC benchmark on stateless session
beans. 200 beans in the pool and 30 database 
connections in the pool.
2.2.2 records a throughput of 630/530 transactions 
per second (first/subsequent run); 2.5 records
a throughput of 510/420 TPS.

So the "feature" I'm requesting is some performance
monitoring. The decline in performance between
fist/subsequent runs suggests that there's a
resource leak somewhere.
