Where are you keeping log4j?  Is it in common/lib or some place such as
that or is it stored in you WEB-INF/lib folder?

>From my understanding if it's in common or shared, then unloading the
webapp won't release the files, since webapps inherit common and shared
classloaders, they don't actually create them.
