Perhaps you can have a look at this behavior. This doesn't sound like a problem. This is just how Garbage Collection works. In Java you don't delete/free memory, the JVM automatically detects memory that is no longer referenced and free's it for you. However this detection can be time consuming so it generally doesn't look for work until memory is almost full. So if memory consumption is settling then there isn't a memory leak.
