Hello Nix
Are you looking for a memory leak in your web application or in tomcat?
Short answer is it's not easy.
The garbage collection mechanism in the JVM will cleanup any objects
that are no longer referenced. Therefore, you are only concerned with
objects that remain referenced (which in an ideal world should be
relatively few).
To test if your app is indeed exponentially increasing, you could
start the JVM with the -Xverbose:gc option and watch the output for a
while.
If not, a good (commercial) tool is JProbe
