GeoWebCache/geowebcache — Issue #85: Jboss startup takes up to 15 minutes while loading geowebcache

In our project we use Geowebcache 1.2.2 on Jboss 4.2.2 to build a tilecache.

We experience the following:
- Startup time of Jboss takes sometimes up to 15 minutes while loading geowebcache
(the logs states: INFO (main)[org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[jboss.web].[localhost].[/geowebcache]] Initializing spring FrameworkServlet 'geowebcache')
The cpu-load of the machine increases till 100% causing jboss and therefore the tilecache to be unavailable

- Sometimes the JBOSS java process crashes without any logging. (we have not been able to relate this to geowebcache yet) but geowebcache is our main suspect.

Our file h2_metastore.index.db is about 2 GB big, perhaps that has to do something with it?

We are using:
Jboss version 4.2.2 GA
Webcache version 1.2.2 built 2010-03-03

Can someone help up us eliminate these problems?
Thanks in advance.
