Nope, it was the Validator 4.3.0. > application or as part of the container startup? > And what exactly do you mean w/ Hibernate Validator gets loaded? Do you just > see the ValidatorFactory or are there other instances from the > org.hibernate.validator. Right after startup of the application server I see instances from the org.hibernate.validator package (see http://www.flickr.com/photos/78207256@N07/7177561006/in/photostream). Some time later they are garbage collected. SerializableValidatorFactory remains in memory and consumes ca 256KB. There is also either AuditConfiguration or AuditEntitiesConfiguration (don't remember now) which consumes ca. 2.5MB. As I already wrote we don't use Envers and we don't use Validator. None of our classes has Validator related annotations So why they are loaded at all? I have tried to exclude this modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml by adding following exclusions: <exclusions> <module name="org.hibernate.validator"/> <module name="org.hibernate.envers"/> </exclusions> But it does not seem to work.
