Tomcat debugging memory black hole in 4.5

Yes, read the forum, it's been reported many times. There is no current
solution, however the advice from JB is usually to download the YouKit EAP
and take a snapshot and send it to them for review.

I don't know if anyone has done that yet. I haven't because I'm on a Mac
and I don't have this problem.

Has anyone else experienced this? I am using Tomcat 5.0.27. Everytime I start
a debug session it creates one cmd.exe and one java.exe service. After I stop
the session the services keeps running. Eventually the system runs out of
memory.
Unfortunately I am stuck using 4.03 until this is fixed.

I have read the forum butI am suprised more people are not complaining about this. I thought I would bring it up again. Using Yourkit wouldn't help since the leak is not within IDEA.

Then if it's not within idea, why would people complain here???

There is no memory leak in IDEA but IDEA is not shutting down the Tomcat service when you close your debug session from IDEA. Hence you get a new Tomcat service running every time you start and stop a debug session which leads to a lot of memory being used.

Well, this all seems like a mute point as it looks like 4.5.1RC1 fixes the bug!

You mean a "moot" point.

Oops

I spoke too soon. It looks like this is NOT fixed in v4.5.1.

I tried adding this bug to the buglist and it doesn't ever get posted so I'll keep harping on it here. It's still not fixed and I can't use 4.5 at all.
