[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Objects created from link with page params

I've just noticed that if I go to a page, Seam will look at all of the page.xml's for each link on the page and instantiate any objects referenced by page params. Is this expected? For example if I have a page with 3 links eg: index.xhtml | <s:link view="/page1.xhtml">Page 1</s:link> | <s:link view="/page2.xhtml">Page 2</s:link> | <s:link view="/page3.xhtml">Page 3</s:link> And each page has a page.xml with a page parameter eg:page1.page.xml | <param name="id" value="#{pageOneHome.Id}"/> Then if I visit index.xhtml and look at /debug.seam I will see that pageOneHome, pageTwoHome and pageThreeHome will all be present. I would have thought that Seam would only need to create these objects when the links were actually clicked. In my real case it means that every menu item that I have has it's backing bean created and any Beans that are injected into the Backing Bean with create=true. This isn't a big deal, but does make it messy trying to determine when I actually do want an object created (I'm having some dramas with resetting some objects). Cheers, Damian.
