I don't understand why rebuilding the cache would take more memory than what was originally required. It just doesn't sound right or it is a memory leak when you use the stop/start or reload options.
Giving a higher priority to this process is not a very good option because in our case it is a development UNIX server and there are database and other peoples' processes running. Increasing the memory heap size will just slow down the occurrence of that OutOfMemory error instead of preventing it. I'm actually looking for a long term solution because it may be critical whether to use tomcat for production and live web servers.

I'm not sure how you would reduce it though, it's "a good thing"(tm) -- really, it's reducing the memory usage by 2-3MB once the cache is rebuilt. This is just an (somewhat) educated guess, though. I suppose you could give it a higher priority so it could speed it up, and take up more resources, for a shorter period of time, or alternately, throw some hardware at it, and add some more memory.
