Sounds like a memory leak. If you have static data or threads referencing
memory, that memory won't get reclaimed by the GC. Try monitoring GC with
the -verbosegc option to the JVM, and use tools like IBM's JInsight
alphaworks.ibm.com, OptimizeIt www.optimizeit.com, etc., to analyze where
the memory is going.
