Incidently the reason the blacklist is so large is because we are still using the old annotation scanning (which has the problem I reported a couple of months ago). i.e. if you have an unpacked subdeployment, it thinks subdeployment.jar/org/jboss/whatever/Some.class might be a class. When it fails to the load the class, it fills ups the blacklist. This is besides it wasting time scanning things it doesn't need to and creating lots of unnecessary ClassNotFoundExceptions.
