I am working with jboss 7.1.1 Final that was changed to include a fix to JIRA https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-4330

In my system there are 60000 messages that are sent to 1 persistent queue and later on they pass in 4 non durable queues.

the 60000 messages where sent successfully within 1 hour and I saw the load of the system and CPU usage drop, but than after 3 hours I got the following out of memory exception:
