Are you creating new sections of polygons and destroying them as the user moves around? If you do, you may be creating and deleting objects too quickly for the garbage collector to keep up. One way to address is to use the -mx option (for example -mx32m) to increase the maximum amount of memory

I'm modeling an (effectively) infinitely large surface by cleverly stitching things into the scene graph ahead of them and whipping them out behind as the user moves around. Works OK, except the memory usage seems to grow monotonically until after a couple minutes java barfs on out-of-memory. OK
