Use a heap profiler to find out what's eating up the space and who is allocating it. Even the simple one (hprof) included in the 1.5 JDK will tell you that. Better ones (e.g., jhat) are available in 1.6, if you're willing to move up. There are also numerous 3rd-party profilers available, with YourKit being a favorite of many. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
