Would you either 

A)      Not sign posts to the group

Or 

B) Sign the posts with a working certificate?

Everytime I hit one of your messages, it locks my mail client up for 30

Warning: 
The Certificate Revocation List needed to verify the signing certificate
is either unavailable or it has expired.

Hi,

To keep it up, you will need to setup session replication (See your 
Cluster element in server.xml), either in-memory or JDBC. Both are 
supposed to work.

However, that implies several things:
- Your session must contain Seralizable objects only.
- Your performance will be worse (how much worse highly depends on the 
size of the objects in your session)

And... nobody guarantees that your memory leak (if there is one) is not 
related to the information stored in sessions.

Depending on your load balancer, there is another option (IMHO, better 
for your case).

There are some load balancers that allow you to turn a server down while

keeping it up for currently established sessions, for a certain time. 
That allows you NOT to use session replication, thus not replicating any

instability related to sessions.

Oh, and last, if you need a good consultant for fixing, optimizing or 
redesigning your application, you just found one ;-)

Yours,


Antonio Fiol
