Abstract: A laundry treating appliance for treating laundry items according to an automatic cycle of operation can include a cabinet defining an interior and having an access opening providing access to the interior. A tub can be located within the interior and can at least partially define a liquid chamber. A drum is rotatably mounted within the liquid chamber and at least partially defines a treating chamber. A clothes mover is located within the treating chamber and rotatable about a vertical axis. The clothes mover can include a base and a barrel.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for reducing memory consumption in a run time environment by reducing copies of code in memory, wherein the method limits, based on the delegation, identical resources in memory and reduces memory consumption by not creating class loaders to load resources that are already loaded by existing class loaders.

Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for decreasing the number of duplicate library copies loaded into memory without endangering the security of applications in a runtime environment. In a preferred embodiment, applications in the runtime environment may be provided with a delegation classloader that identifies any libraries referenced by the delegation classloader's respective application. The delegation classloaders then delegate the task of providing the referenced libraries to a distinct software component. In a preferred embodiment, the distinct software component may be another delegation classloader or other loader adapted to look at a single library or a small set of libraries. These “atomic” classloaders can be freely shared by multiple applications since they do not expose any application's internals. Each atomic classloader preferably loads one copy of its associated library or libraries into memory.

Abstract: A floating illuminating device adapted to float upon a body of combustible oil. A wick supported on a wick-holder draws oil by capillary action and may be ignited to provide illumination. The wick-holder is formed with a central depending generally frusto-conical well portion surrounded by elongate buoyancy imparting cavities which are spaced a substantial distance from the wick so that they do not suffer heat distortion. Improved channel means allow the oil to flow into the well.
