The container will clean up the request.
If an error page was defined for ServletException, it will be shown.
If an error page was defined for ServletException.getRootCause, it will be shown.
Otherwise, an ugly browser defined error page will be shown.

destroy() is only called once all threads within the servlet's service method have exited or after a timeout period has passed.

Calling of the destroy method is totally upon the mercy of the container.Probably when you bring down the server (or, bring down a context using container manager) then it calls destroy method of all the sevlets.

If you want a servlet to take itself out of action due to some problem, throw an javax.servlet.UnavailableException - the servlet container will then not even try to send it requests.
