Randomly problems with external graphics loading
------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-1429
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-1429
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: WMS
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0-beta3
            Reporter: Andrea Aime
            Assignee: Andrea Aime
             Fix For: 1.6.0-RC1

It has been a user report that under certain conditions (like high cpu or network load) the graphics symbolizers might get lost causing the generation of incomplete maps or incomplete legends. See related issues and also:
http://www.nabble.com/Problem-with-SLD---External-Graphics-tf4677688.html

This may due to the fact the external graphic loading code has a built in time out (see org.geotools.renderer.lite.ImageLoader).
Also, that class does not take into consideration issues with high volume external image loading and content changes (that is, same url but image changed).
The attached gt2 issue tries to consider alternatives to the usage of MediaTracker for image loading, as well as to address the other issues there.
