I did fix the issue.We had a job that ran every 30 minutes to sync the Messaging server time. I turned it off and the 'replacing control socket' disappeared and the thread count is stable. But back to the case where the control sockets gets replaced becuase the client didn't receive a ping back from the server (assuming when the time sync happened , the time was off and hence something happened to the server ping threads....), shouldn't these remoting threads be cleaned up on the server since the client is not using these threads anymore and have started using the new ones ? In my case the currentPoolSize never decreased. Also does turning the ping off have any effect on the messaging (i will post it in the messaging forums...just wanted to see if you have any thoughts on it.) Thanks a lot. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/557144#557144] Start a new discussion in JBoss Remoting at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
