As Dan suggest try the Rob approach and see if it still happens. Keep in mind that in next version we will provide a shutdown method to clean all JRuby stuff, which will be so useful because some users that are using long live applications are experiencing some permgem problems too because of JRuby environment was consuming all resources.

Moreover, in near future (1.6.0) I am planning that users will be able to share a common JRuby runtime across different applications, so for example you will be able to run AsciidoctorJ, TiltJ, ... over the same instance.

As usually, anything you find, write here and we take a look.
