I didn't know that @EJB gives reference backed by stateless beans pool - I thought that's just single stateless bean injection.
Yeah, an @EJB internally injects a proxy similar to what you would have got when you do a JNDI lookup. And it's only when you invoke on that SLSB, that the instance association happens. It's the same irrespective of whether you use JNDI lookup or @EJB injection.
