Cleaning up servlets

[H.F.N. den Boer]

When a servlet is destroyed, I log a number of things.
>From the log I conclude that servlets are only destroyed when the NT service is
shut down manually.

Do I need to run a separate process (thread) to monitor how long a servlet is
not used and from that process destroy it or is there some other way to keep my
environment clean ? Maybe a Tomcat setting ?

I'm working with;
Win2K server, build 5.00.2195
IIS 5.0, configured with ISAPI filter
JDK1.3.1beta
Tomcat 3.2.1 running as NT service
