Yes. Stateless session beans are pooled on the server and
indiscriminately used to service any and all requests (one request at
a time) from all users of that stateless session bean. You don't
"own" a stateless session bean.

All the client holds is a reference to a "service" that doesn't know
you or remember you or care about you (nothing personal). It doesn't
matter if you nullify your remote reference or not. You can hold onto
the reference as long as you like and the server doesn't act any
differently.

Well, sorta. Some "arbitrary" stateless session bean instance is
allocated to you when your request arrives and is dedicated to
servicing that request. After it's done with the request, it might be
destroyed or used to service some other request. You have no
visibility into this behavior.

no.

Hope this helps,
