you were right, i set development fals in the wrong section of web.xml.

i put it under     
<servlet-class>org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet</servlet-class>  no, and 
things behave like expected.

thanks for help and sorry for the noise !

roland

ps:
and indeed this should not be named memory leak, as a memory leak means 
indefinite ressource grow...
