AS7 often uses the included jboss libraries to poll the server, deploy, undeploy, and stop the server. In all of these cases, it never closes the streams opened by the as7 classes. Users can run out of file handles if they start and stop the as7 server several times. Two or Three threads are started by the jboss jars for each polling attempt. After 100 polling requests, there will be over 200 threads that refuse to go away. These threads stay around in excess of 10-15 minutes, and in some cases never close. These threads must be stopped.
