Integration

Hi all,
We recently migrated to Weblogic 10.3.6 and JRockit 31 1.6 (64 bit). I tried to analyze JVM performance using flight recording. I noticed several (around 200K withing 5 minutes!) ClassNotFoundExceptions in the flight recording, but no big issue in the application. This got me curious and I decided to run with Java run-time options verbose:class=trace. This gave more details in the log. I found that for loading every Weblogic class the JRockit first tried 4-5 times and then successfully loaded the class from the Jar file. So for each class I got this exception trace below. I am attaching the example for how the JVM loaded the weblogic.management.scripting.WLST class. My question is:

1. Is this the expected behavior?
2. Is there a better way to load classes in JRockit?
3. Am I just seeing these exceptions because I am setting the Flight recording at a very verbose level?

Please advise. Thanks in advance.
- Shankar.
