You are mixing several things here. It's not because you hit Out of memory errors that you have a memory leak, it can simply mean that you have a document cache too big for the memory you allocated for example. You can modify the documents cache size in xwiki.cfg.
How much memory did you allocated ? XWiki is not a small beast and it require a minimum to work. See http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Performances#HMemory.
