You can also use the simple scripts below to help you out. We were
getting OOME errors after several years of smooth sailing, and it turned
out that our load had simply increased to the point that we needed to
allocate more than 64MB heap to our webapp. We used the scripts below to
monitor everything for a few weeks afterward.

#!/usr/bin/perl
#
# Parses output from the HealthReport.jsp script to generate
# a single, tab-separated line of text showing the current time
# (in seconds) and the max, total, and free memory (in bytes).
#
# This can then be used to easily graph memory usage in a running
# Java VM.
#

($totalMem) = /total="([0-9]+)"/;
($freeMem) = /free="([0-9]+)"/;
}
elsif ( /<error/ ) {

}
}
Then, write a script like this and run it every minute or so:
#!/bin/sh
wget -qO http://host/path/to/HealthCheck.jsp \
| health-report-memory-parser.pl \
>> memory-usage.txt
Graph that baby using your favorite tool and see if the memory usage
graph looks good. It should look like /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
and not like
