Many pipe file descriptors opened

[Jose María Zaragoza]

Hello:

I'm using the Apache Mina 2.0.7 + Tomcat 6.0.23


I'm watching ( lsof ) a lot of file descriptors opened such as

java 13162 tomcat 476r FIFO 0,8 0t0 680740932 pipe
java 13162 tomcat 477r FIFO 0,8 0t0 680740932 pipe
java 13162 tomcat 479r FIFO 0,8 0t0 680740933 pipe


I wonder if this could be caused by IoFilters

Must I remove IoFilters from FilterChain before disconnecting a socket ?
Any ideas ?


Thanks and regards
