I've been investigating why it seems to take at least 500 ms between closing the last session and the session close returning. This is one of the things that has really been slowing down the test suite. It seems that after calling NettyConnector.close() it always pauses 500ms before actually closing. I'm thinking there's a Thread.sleep(500) or 500 ms timeout somewhere in the Netty code that's causing this problem. Any got any ideas?
