Re: [Geoserver-users] Unbounded file growth for GeoServer 2.8 under tomcat 8

[Andrea A. <and...@ge...>]

Hi Tom,
that sounds like a Wicket bug... we just upgraded GeoServer master (2.9.x
series) to Wicket 7
(we were using the very old 1.4 release before).
That might solve the issue.
GeoServer 2.9.0 is scheduled to be released March 2016

Cheers
Andrea
