Sorry, I was thinking you were shutting-down your webapp
(stop/undeploy) not the entire Tomcat. Your original post was quite
clear... I just glossed-over it.

Can you capture a thread dump when the JVM is in that state and post
it to the list? Also, if you could post as much of the code of the
task that the TimerTask is actually running, it might help.
