I take that back... I did run one some months ago (and just
tried it again): http://www.khelekore.org/jmp/ .  It gives a
nice graphical analysis of your heap, but it doesn't look
like the heap is getting very large (at least on my Linux
workstation).

I'm confused by that, because Windows task manager clearly
shows memory usage increasing over time.  Yes, I have heard that
you shouldn't rely on task manager, but clearly the memory
is going *somewhere*.

But, I will give JProbe a shot.  Thanks again for the link.
