Is there no jBPM guru even remotely interested in this problem? Let me reminder you of the facts: - take the Websale demo - wrap it in a for loop - see how your machine grinds to halt after 4000 iterations If this is not the result of my stupidity (always possible, then please tell me what I do wrong) this is a problem that affects everyone who uses jBPM in a long running process. In which case I think it matters :) Best regards, Johan View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4005357#...
