I updated from Spring 2.5.5 to 2.5.6 and found the performance of Hessian calls degraded by 80-100%, everything else equal. I noticed that in the 2.5.6 change log there is one regarding Hessian:

* Hessian/Burlap service exporters explicitly close input and output streams now (not relying on servlet container)

Does anyone have the same issue and can some one in Spring explain the reasons for this change?

Thanks,
