Pete, thank you very much! The component could be conversation scoped if I extend a conversation across the the whole user experience. Would that help? A given session component should never be under high load, as it's only accessed from a page within the session. How do I set the timeout? I was unable to find anything in the docs just now. Any idea on the arjuna or out of memory errors? Thanks again! View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4099392#...
