thanks. I just forwarded one of the tests I did before 3.0 release. I did
about 5 such tests I believe.
It shows 1000 deploys of the sample app and the JConsole memory info after.
It does not break. Perhaps the examples are not polluted by tons of open
source monolith JARS like my apps are.

Yes, peeewww.
It is actually a ./bin/shutdown.sh , sleep for a bit , kill -9 java ,
./bin/startup.sh
The problem is not related I don't think. It is just a badly written app. :)
