well, things _are_ running, specifically the communications channels
are looking for incoming messages and the like, generating garbage
etc.

Try attaching jconsole to the process and hitting the GC button to
force a garbage collection. As long as your memory gets to some level
and drops back to that level after forcing GCs, you'll be fine.

Best,
Erick
