--- Comment #9 from Mauro Molinari <ma...@tiscali.it>  2009-01-12 03:41:14 PST ---
Today I was trying to identify memory leaks in our webapp restart process and I
encountered this problem (the logger instance of StandardContext keeps a
reference to a logger that is loaded by the webapp class loader, so this can't
be garbage collected).
I gave a quick look to the attached patch and it seems to actually solve my
problem.
This is clearly a bug (not an enhancement!) because resources are not cleared
correctly by org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.stop().

I hope this will be fixed soon...

Mauro.
