Another possibility: The people who know aren't reading this thread. I'd tell you if I knew, but I haven't needed to track down a problem like this for several years, and forgotten whatever tool I used at the time (it was probably jmap).
Suggestion: Google search "java memory leak" and see what tools and techniques people suggest in articles they write on the topic.
