*You should try to generate heap dumps and analyze the heap using a tool like the Eclipse Memory Analyzer. Maybe it helps spotting a group of objects holding a large amount of memory*
The tool that I used also allows to capture heap snap shots. Eclipse had a lot of pre-requisites. You need to apply some three or five patches before you can start using it........ My observations with this tool were that some Hashmaps were taking up a lot of space. Although I could not pin it down to the exact HashMap. These would either be weblogic's or Solr's.... I will anyway give eclipse's a try and see how it goes. Thanks for your input.
