I have logged an issue in jira with key AXIS2-766, and I have attached all the 
related files.

Thanks and Regards,

Subject: Re: Axis2 High memory usage, OutOfMemory exception


Could you please log a jira bug and upload your test code both on the
server and client. Am really surprised. I have been testing
performance for months now and i haven't seen this behavior.

thanks,
dims
