+/**
+ * GCThreadLeakPreventer
+ *
+ * Prevents a call to sun.misc.GC.requestLatency pinning a webapp classloader
+ * by calling it with a non-webapp classloader. The problem appears to be that
+ * when this method is called, a daemon thread is created which takes the 
+ * context classloader. A known caller of this method is the RMI impl. See
+ * http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6626680/does-java-garbage-collection-log-entry-full-gc-system-mean-some-class-called
+ * 
+ * This preventer will start the thread with the longest possible interval, although
+ * subsequent calls can vary that. Recommend to only use this class if you're doing
+ * RMI.
+ * 
+ * Inspired by Tomcat JreMemoryLeakPrevention.
