Robert, I've monitored orion using jprobe when orion is started with the -restart command.
It loaded another copy of the application classes in a new classloader, and eventually ran out of memory. I never pursued this as i had higher priority things to work on at the time. Not sure if the original classloader was eventually cleaned up, or whether there is some config setting that causes Orion to work differently.
