Currently it's some kind of SuSE (2.4.20-64GB-SMP). But it is definitely not an issue of the operation system. I can run the whole system on Windows, where I see the same dangling file handles. The only cause why the problem does not get visible on Windows is that there is no default-limit of 1024 for open files per process. The effect you experienced might be due to other default-settings (ulimit) on the other distribution you used. I decided to do two things now: First, I will assure that there is no older Xalan/Xerces version in the classpath. Second if the problem can't be fixed with Xalan, I will try to replace the usage of xpath's document() function with Cocoon's Xinclude transformer where possible. Thank you for your hints.
