2Gb is too much for the fetcher unless you're using a huge amount of threads. 
You can easily answer the questions using a tool as JConsole. It, a.o., 
displays realtime graphs of JVM heap generations. A memory leak has a very 
distinct appearance; a saw-tooth that never drops to a baseline and keeps 
increasing until OOM is reached.

As long you don't run OOM there is no problem. I would advice to drop Xmx to 
500MB orso as the more heap you have, the more work the GC has cleaning the 
mess.
