You are right, these entries will not be garbage-collected. Please open an issue in JIRA for this: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/issue-tracking.html Feel free to flag it as "critical". If you need an immediate remedy, you can modify the MTHCM and remove those entries for which neither connections nor threads are queued. thanks, Roland --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
