It seems I have found the glitch. Following this suggestion https://wiki.apache.org/tapestry/EasyBrowserRedirection
I had implented redirection in a pageBeginRender method (I'm talking about T 4.1.6, sorry about that) Now it seems that when the excpetion is raised PermGen occupation is increased. It seems there is a difference with this regard raising the exception in a listener instead that in pageBeginrender. Anyone feels its memory activated on this?
