I did start with visualvm. I posted a screenshot in an earlier thread. 
However I'm unable to make sense of its output. jhat pointed straight to 
the closure with the reference. visualvm gave me a thousand cascading 
widgets to expand with names that were meaningless to me, none of which 
pointed back to the closure. I'm looking at it again now, trying to find 
another leak. The references for a char[] start at "String" and go back to 
"cache (Java frame)", with no symbol anywhere that I can relate to the 
program being run. I don't know what to do with this. The Strings are from 
another seq: lines from a file via line-seq.

Unfortunately, jhat just hangs on this object, so I have no working 
instrumentation.
