Re: Memory Leaks with Groovy Webtests

Hi

I and at least one other person got the same memory leak problems; see
http://lists.canoo.com/pipermail/webtest/2010q4/013544.html and
http://lists.canoo.com/pipermail/webtest/2011q1/013662.html.

As far as I can tell, the problem lies in the HTMLUnit library that is used
by Webtest but I don't know how to fix it.

Regards, Beat
