    JBoss doesnt release threads after executing MDB (out of Mem

    suhail

      Hi,
      I am using JBoss AS jboss-4.0.2.
      I am getting OutOfMemoryError when I send the messages to an MDB. It happens after i send 30-40 messages. What I have observed on the web-console of Jboss is that #Threads increases by some 30 whenever I sent one message to a queue. Even though message is getting consumed instantly, the thread count doesn?t come down but keep on increasing by a factor of approx 30 or more with each message. After sometime it reaches some 2000 figure and server starts giving out of memory error. If I make process synchronous (I mean not use MDB) , thread count doesnt increase.
      It implies that each message is adding approx. 30 threads and threads are not released after messages are getting consumed. Can anybody explain it and give a fix ?
      Please find the stack of errors below. I get either of these two stacks.

      Any help will be appreciated.
      Thank you
      Suhail
