Ruben Martin Pozo commented on MYFACES-3510:
--------------------------------------------
And how do you explain that if I remove the patch the server doesn't freeze
when deploying? To test the patch I have to redeploy the app several times so I
get to the point when there is no more permGen memory and the soft reference is
garbage collected. Then and only then the server freezes and not in any of the
other times when I redeployed but there was enough memory
So I really think something strange is happening that is, somehow, trigger by
this patch.
I'll try patch-2 to see if the same thing happens

> We've seen an application classloader memory leak due to the new class
> javax.faces.component._PropertyDescriptorHolder class introduced in version
> 2.1.6
> This class holds a reference to a Method of a component loaded by the
> application classloader. The memory leak shows up when the
> _PropertyDescriptorHolder is stored in the _ComponentAttributesMap class that
> is loaded by the system class loader.
> You should use a WeakReference instead of storing the direct reference to the
> Method
