I have a mis-behaving Tomcat webapp (that I didn't write) which likes to increase its memory size from ~80M on startup to ~125M after some amount of usage at which point it crashes with OutOfMemoryException. Obviously

they've left open so that the thing is actually scalable.

You need to look at the Tomcat4 HEAP size. Tomcat internally limits the amount of memory an app can use, probably in your case to 128M. You need to add an "-Xmx 256M" or some such option to your Tomcat startup.
