There are some useful commands in the JDK which may help track down
exactly which class is causing the problem.

 jmap -histo <pid>

(and other jmap subcommands)

If you take a snapshot periodically, esp after reload cycles you may be
able to see which classes are increasing in number.


If you can get a VisualVM working, or connect a JConsole to the remote
VM you may be able to poke around and see which classes aren't being
garbage collected.

I'll have a look at the code below a bit later, am pushed for time right
now.
