jay shaughnessy commented on AS7-2516:
--------------------------------------

It looks like we're seeing this as well on the JON/RHQ project.  We have a smaller test EAR that deploys only an EJB jar and a few jars to /lib, and this deployment does not have the problem.   But a larger deployment with two EJB jars, a SAR and a lot of 3rd party jars (no WARs fwiw) hits it fairly quickly, after 2-3 deployments.

I have not tried the workaround yet.  Also, we're trying to set up a single deployment for multiple test classes.  If that works then that may be a separate workaround.

> Our war is apparently so big, that the 3th deployment fails with PermGen.
> A few tests later it even hangs forever (until it times out)
