Threads not released/reused in Geronimo 2.0.1 and Jetty, was: Creation of new threads after closing response writer in Servlet in Little-G Jetty 2.0.1

[Mario Ruebsam]

The increasing creation of Threads happens also when I start
the default Geronimo/Jetty 2.0.1 distribution.
Even the usage of the console leads to creation of new Threads
and none of the existing Threads will be reused.

I tested it in the following environment:

Windows XP, Java 1.6.0_02
HP-UX, Java 1.5.0_9

Thanks,
Mario
