I have a page1.jsf, in this page i have a commandButton that put an object in ELFlash, and redirects to page2.jsf. In this page i recover the object by ELFlash. Everything works fine. But while the user remains in page2.jsf, for every ajax request, tomcat shows this warning message:

20/07/2013 09:43:37 com.sun.faces.context.flash.ELFlash setCookie
WARNING: JSF1095: The response was already committed by the time we tried to set the outgoing cookie for the flash.  Any values stored to the flash will not be available on the next request.

What does it really mean?

Instead of using a Filter as mentioned in @Rafal K answer, you can also increase the response buffer size by setting a context parameter in your web.xml

<!-- increase buffer size to avoid JSF1095 errors -->
<context-param>
    <param-name>javax.faces.FACELETS_BUFFER_SIZE</param-name>
    <param-value>131072</param-value>
</context-param>

The size is given in bytes and should be larger than your biggest page. You can easily check the size of your pages in Firefox by right clicking and selecting View Page Info.
