For starters, I'd try -verbose:gc and perhaps -verbose:class to give you a general idea of what's happening when. There are many flavors of profilers out there, a lot of them free. (Our customers tend to go for the premium stuff like Wily Introscope, which definitely isn't free, but has lots of bells and whistles - and support.) I'd also suggest searching the mailing list archives, since this problem with running out of PermGen space comes up fairly often. There have been some techniques and tips posted to help reduce the impact.
