Howdy,
Once you get an OutOfMemoryError, your JVM is in an unpredictable state
and must be restarted. This is not specific to tomcat. Reloading the
webapp will not do any good.
Find the leak with a profiler and fix it ;)

Subject: Memory Usage, Leakage and java.lang.OutofMemory
So let's say that I have a web app that is slowly but surely leaking.
Eventually, I will get a java.lang.OutOfMemory error.
With how Tomcat is internally architected, or with how the JVM
operates,
does this cause a problem for all other applications running under
Tomcat? Is there now no more memory for *anything* running under Tomcat
(and let's not forget Tomcat itself)?
Or if I just 'reload' the problem webapp, will that 'release' all the
memory that is currently being hogged by this app?
