Description

Due to the default value of the parameter CONFIG_REFRESH_PERIOD, each request causes to reload the web.xml and potential faces config files defined in the web.xml. These loaded files were not freed up and led to open file handles (which are limited to 1024 by default) on the system. After a while the open file handles prevents the system from creating new SocketConnections.
