Ooh, using DataSourceRealm is much better, because you can share the
JDBC Connection objects with the rest of your application. It apparently
also doesn't suffer from this bug. If you are already using a DataSource
in your application, just switch the className and then remove all the
connection information from your <Realm> and replace it with the
required DataSource name (see the docs for specifics).

Right: JDBCRealm does not do any connection pooling AFAIK.

For the DataSourceRealm, you can simply set these options on your
<Resource> that defines the DataSource. You just set the validationQuery
attribute to something that your database is guaranteed to execute
successfully. MySQL users often choose "SELECT 1" but pretty much
anything will work.

Agreed: very strange.
