  LPS-11954	Glassfish Bundle - Set the JSP compilation to store the generated classes
  LPS-39294	GlassFish Server Will Not Start/Restart
  LPS-16875	Embedded Page Type Grows non stop in IE8
  LPS-28222	Able to DOS server and keep it down

Every time the server is restarted a new loader is created in the generated jsp folder. After one week I had 3,5 GB in that folder.

The loaders should be either reused or removed before creating a new one

Verified with the new bundled Glassfish version.

Guys,

This is a regression bug in Glassfish that it is already reported in their ticketing system:

http://java.net/jira/browse/GLASSFISH-19162

You can find a workaround in the comments of the previous tickets. Once the next version of Glassfish is released this problem should be gone.

Cheers,

Migue
