Michael,
I just checked my web.xml and it appears am using the same filter
<!-- Cayenne -->
<context-param>
<param-name>cayenne.configuration.path</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/config/cayenne-files</param-value>
</context-param>
<filter>
<filter-name>CayenneFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.apache.cayenne.conf.WebApplicationContextFilter</
filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>CayenneFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
In the code I am accessing the BaseContext via the following call:
ObjectContext oc = BaseContext.getThreadObjectContext();
So, unless I have misread, it appears we are using almost exactly the
same code.
Questions:
1. I am not sure what you mean by "you could do a cast there".
2. Should I release this BaseContext and create a new one (as has been
suggested) or should I simple rely on the BaseContext to manage the
memory?
3. Is there some way to message the BaseContext to determine if it has
properly released memory after a session is complete?
Thanks,
Joe

Hi Joe,
The fact that you are seeing a spike with 50-100 concurrent users
doesn't surprise me. After your sessions timeout, the memory usage
goes back down. This seems expected to me.
As for my session-based filter, I'm pretty much using what Cayenne
provides. In my web.xml file for the servlet engine (Tomcat in your
case), I have:
<filter>
<filter-name>Cayenne Filter</filter-name>
<filter-
class>org.apache.cayenne.conf.WebApplicationContextFilter</filter-
class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>Cayenne Filter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
To get your context after that:
private ObjectContext objectContext =
BaseContext.getThreadObjectContext();
I think the filter actually creates a DataContext, so you could do a
cast there.
