persistTempDirectory is for the webapp temp directory.
That is checked on webapp stop (such as server shutdown, or manual webapp
stop, or even webapp redeployment)
As for the File.deleteOnExit(), that's a classlib / jvm feature, if it
isn't working for you, then you have bigger concerns. Namely that java
itself cant do what its designed to do.
Taking a look on my Fedora 20 and Ubuntu 12.04 machines with thousands of
jetty starts I have 0 ${java.io.tmpdir}/start*.properties files at the
moment.
I even have java.io.tmpdir setup in different ways depending on the
configuration I'm working with at the moment.
Some as start scripts, some as upstart, some as sysvinit, some as systemd,
some from command line, some from start.ini, even some from start.d.
A full scan of the filesystems for start*.properties also shows no relevant
hits.
Can I ask what specific JVM you are using? I'll see if I have a copy of it
laying around, just to see if I can replicate.
