Thank you Johan for your reply. Agree that original problem should be fixed.
This is a critical problem for us. We have found out during the last 24
hours that some of our pages are retaining a session reference. With Ajax
requests this gives a doubling of session size for every request, and we now
believe this to be the cause of the StackOverflowErrors. We will try this in
production tomorrow.

We upgraded to to 1.4.7 but still see that the pagemap is locked when the
stack overflows. Do you know if the fix to WICKET-2075 is in 1.4.7?

Thanks
Nigel
