instability while running benchmarks

[olivier gusching <olivier.gusching@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I got a few problems running clif :

-sometimes, the console hangs (just got an empty JFrame) and my 
benchmark freezes with no errors. I got no explanation for that. Any idea ?
-sometimes, the server starts raising exceptions at each http request, 
and the benchmark fails. I use a scenario class (Xscenar2 here) similar 
to the Webtest example. But I think the error is neither the fault of my 
test class, nor that of JBoss which seems to be fine.

 [java] ATTENTION: Recoverable exception caught but 
MethodRetryHandler.retryMethod() returned false, rethrowing exception
    [java] java.lang.NullPointerException

Thanks in advance for helping,
