Note that was the cts config I was testing against. There is a separate ejb3-interceptors-aop.xml for that setup. The current trunk version is using the Pool annotation: | <annotation expr=&quot;!class((a)org.jboss.annotation.ejb.Pool)&quot;&gt; | @org.jboss.annotation.ejb.Pool (value="ThreadlocalPool", maxSize=30, timeout=10000) | </annotation> | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4108217#...
