I'm trying to figure out a fix for a deadlock scenario with the cache,
passivation, and the OveragerTask.

I was thinking.  Why do all this work to see if a ctx can be passivated?  It
is just error prone.

Couldn't we just let the garbage collector decide when to passivate?
Implement EnterpriseContext.finalize to

1. passivate the ctx
2. put the object in the pool.

The javadocs for finalize state that it is ok for the finalize method to do
stuff like "making this object available again to other threads".  So why
all the hassle?

What are the drawbacks of this?  I can't see any right now.

Thanks,

Bill
