the only difference between a memory leak and simply not having enough
memory is intent: if the objects are retained unintentionally, then
it's a leak. If they are retained intentionally, then you need a
bigger heap (or more memory-efficient methods) ;)

Do you have any idea what the cause in your particular case?

Any chance you are coming to ApacheCon in Denver? I'll be covering
this in one of my talks.
