      A problem in the Java JDK 1.4.1 Hotspot compiler causes the Lockhart
      console server process to go into an infinite loop allocating heap
      memory. Ultimately, the server process consumes swap space and dies.

      The Java engineers helping with the investigation suggest this is the
      problem reported in bug 4702051.

      The original Lockhart reported bug is 4837903.

      The problem occurred in JDK 1.4.1_02 on Solaris 9. Lockhart runs
      on this JDK in Solaris 8, Solaris 9, and Solaris 10.

      It has been suggested that this problem is fixed in JDK 1.4.2.

      The problem appears to be related to the JIT compilation of
      the Launch$jsp.java class automatically generated by the
      Tomcat 4.0.5 Jasper compiler (of the Launch.jsp page).
      This generated source file contained 52 finally clauses.
