The message "Waiting for 4 instance(s) to be deallocated" means that Tomcat
thinks there are four requests that have been started for this servlet, but have
never returned.  That means one of two things:

* Your servlet accepts a call to its service() method but never
  returns or throws an exception (probably only possible if you
  are messing around with threads).

* There is some path through Tomcat internals where it allocates
  a servlet instance but forgets to deallocate it.

I've examined the code path pretty carefully, and cannot see any case of the
latter -- a reproducible test case would be extremely useful in tracking this
down.
