threads waiting on changeawareclassloader

[badh]

We have many threads that use XML parsers - both SAX and DOM very frequently. Most of the time, our threads are waiting on the class loader and hence get queued up. We have also a lot of EJB calls that also use the same class loader and are waiting. This slows down our application a lot.

The main reason for this is that the loadclass method is synchronized.

Has anybody faced this and have a solution to this?

I'd revise the classpath.
