If you have written your regular enterprise web service you will probably not have very complex code (I'm not talking about business logic, but language features).

But then you are using a 1 year old framework (if you're lucky) that depends on a version of library X that is 2 years old that depends on a 3 years old library etc.

At the end of the chain you have a library that does low level stuff (bytecode instrumentation for example) and is a few years old. That is what may give you problems, and often the only practical solution is to update to a newer version of the framework, which can be quite expensive.
