Denis Petrunin commented on RF-4471:
------------------------------------

I've encountered in the same issue on 3.2.2-SR1.

See org.ajax4jsf.resource.ResourceBuilderImpl for ImageIO.setUseCache(false) 
(line 115).  Due to this call there is a reference to WebappClassLoader in 
static member of sun.awt.AppContext. As result webapp classes can't be garbage 
collected in PermGen space. I can't continuously redelpoy my web application 
due to  PermGen  failure (java.lang.OutOfMemoryError).

Here is an output of jhat utility (heap dump was done after webapp was 
undeployed):

Static reference from sun.awt.AppContext.mainAppContext (from class 
sun.awt.AppContext) :
--> sun.awt.appcont...@0x3a30ce0 (49 bytes) (field contextClassLoader:)
--> org.apache.catalina.loader.webappclassloa...@0x382ec00 (152 bytes) 

As result I have a troubles with hot redeployment while development.

> It seems as we found a memleak in the ResourceBuilderImpl class. The call to 
> ImageIO.setCache(false)
> causes sun.awt.AppContext to statically initialize itself (inside static 
> initialization of IIORegistry). The problem is that AppContext seems to hold 
> a static reference to the contextclassloader of the calling thread. When our 
> application gets undeployed the reference to the applications classloader is 
> still hold by AppContext causing that loaded classes cannot be garbage 
> collected.
> I only checked richfaces 3.16 but if ResourceBuilderImpl still exists in 3.2 
> stream I suppose that the problem exists there as well.
