Sounds like you are talking about use of Client.addConnectionListener(ConnectionListener listener, int pingPeriod). Fom looking at latest remoting code base, after the connection notifier is fired so that all the ConnectionListeners are notified, the connection notifier is stopped, so should not receive any further notifications. Also, if call Client.removeConnectionListener(ConnectionListener listener) and is the only registered listener, will then also stop the connection notifier.
