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.
