             Project: JBoss Logging
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jboss-logging-jdk
    Affects Versions: 3.3.0.Beta1
         Environment: JDK7, Tomcat 7, OpenJPA-2.4.1, ValidationAPI-1.x, hibernate-validator-5.2.1, jboss-logging (fresh from github).

Subclass of java.util.logging.Level creates PermGen memory leak if webapp provides jboss-logging.jar inside a webapp. This happen most likely in Tomcat and hot-redeployment stops working after few times out of PermGen memory.

It's a commonly known side effect of JDK logging library, projects should not inherit Level class. 

See this discussion and github pull request where I have fixed this problem.
