If it was ages ago, you probably used java.util.Timer, right?

java.util.Timer is not suitable for use in a JDBC driver because it 
doesn't do any exception handling on the timer thread, it's subject to 
congestion on the timer thread, and it offers no way for the driver to 
control the timer thread to cleanly shut it down during unload. It's 
unusable in app servers and not really a great idea anywhere that needs 
to be robust and long-running.
