I recently upgraded our app from 1.4.12 to 1.4.13. Our app has an admin screen that shows the current session size using Session’s getSizeInBytes method. This screen is just a panel that gets replaced/refreshed via Ajax when a link is clicked. Today I noticed that every time I clicked the link to reload the panel the session size grows by around 3000 KB and never does a gc. If I roll back to 1.4.12 and the problem goes away.
In the Netbeans profiler, the only thing I see spiraling out of control are byte[] objects (serialized objects?). Nothing unusual appears with the size or number of my application specific objects. For now I’m rolling back to 1.4.12 as I’m not sure how this is affecting things outside this specific screen. Thanks.
