be careful with interpreting this value. the JVM is _not_ required to release memeory as soon as it is no longer referenced! so (maybe) it keeps appearing under "memoryUsed" although it _could_ be garbage collected.
I share Bernd's caution about using this indicator that has limited accuracy. I strongly recommend YourKit... you can get a free 14 day trial, do two memory snapshots and run a diff to see what objects are leaking. I think that or some other true profiling tool is necessary to spot leaks. -- Serge Knystautas Lokitech >> software . strategy . design >> http://www.lokitech.com p. 301.656.5501 e.
