Hi, Kai.
The problem you are experiencing is a difficult one, as it relates to the
way you allocate and de-allocate your resources in a way the garbage
collector can determine that a resource is not needed anymore.
You say that you're using jdbc. You should make sure that you are properly
(and explicitly) deallocating all resources you create.
a) Connections to the database. If you're not using a connection pool, make
sure your connections are closed.
b) ResultSets AND statements. This is a common problem, you must close()
them in order to let the garbage collector do its work.
example:
rset.close();
stmt.close();
conn.close();
