Hi,

When a class needs to be loaded, how does Orion find
the class ?. 

My guess is it goes through all the jars file it is
configured with (manifest file, server.xml,
application.xml etc). But then isn't this expensive,
because for every single class, it has to go through
all the jars it knows about.

Another questions is, once loaded, when will jars be
unloaded ?. The reason I am asking is if the server is
configured with bunch of jars, but then a given app
only needs few of them, if class finding ends up
loading all the jars, then they are taking up memory
(which is what I am seeing) for quite sometime until
they get unloaded.

Can someone shed some light on this. Please cc me on
the reply.

Thanks

Vissu
