        I think could be anything: An infinite loop in your app, a database (or
other resource) deadlock, any intensive db query (with a really long
transaction timeout).
        For instance, last month we've adopted a new Transaction Manager that
keeps some threads (non daemons) running and prevents Tomcat of doing a
"clean" stop. Now i'm "forcing" Tomcat to stop after 5 minutes waiting. 

        My (little) experience tells me that in cases like this, your app is
more guilt than your Application Server/Web Container. But it is just my
2 cents.
