Please don't get me wrong, but I find it very funny to rely on the stability of a network partition to avoid having a session killed. Either way, that's not a big deal for me, now that I understand the problem. Knowing about it, I can simply postpone the close() until a safe time. It just felt worth pointing out, since this will arguably be *very* hard to track down in practice. -- Gustavo Niemeyer http://niemeyer.net http://niemeyer.net/blog http://niemeyer.net/twitter
