Memory leak with ThreadGroups

[Joseph Shraibman]

One of my classes creates a static ThreadGroup. I notice that when I update a class and tomcat reloads that context the ThreadGroup is still around. If the ThreadGroup is still around that means the old class is still around, which means that class loader is still around. Why is it still around? I tried making the ThreadGroup daemon but it didn't help.

I think the fact that the old class loaders are still around goes a long way to explaining why tomcat takes up so much memory.
