After updating tomcat from 4.1 to 5.5 the problem disappeared so it might have been the bug you mentioned.
"Just a shot in the dark (since you are using somewhat old versions of everything): there was a bug in java.io.File.deleteOnExit() that lead to a leak in native memory. This problem hit a lot of code using File.deleteOnExit(), e.g. commons-fileupload and others. See: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4513817 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FILEUPLOAD-95 http://blogs.sun.com/chegar/#diagnosing_deleteonexit_issues Regards, Rainer" -- GMX startet ShortView.de.
