    Description

      The RMIClassLoader holds a hash table mapping codebase URLs to instances of
      RMIClassLoader objects. Strong references are used to point to the class loader
      instances, so classes loaded through an RMIClassLoader will never get unloaded,
      because the class loader itself has its cache that also strongly references the
      classes loaded through it (unless, of course, *all* references to the
      sun.rmi.server.RMIClassLoader class are gone from the VM, which is a less likely case).
