Hello Jogl list,

we are currently writing a JAVA/JoGL application using the following JOGL version:

http://jogamp.org/deployment/jogamp-current/jogl-all-awt.jnlp to deploy

the application starts fine but after a while the process starts eating-up memory up to 2Gbytes (we are estimating the application should consume in the order of 200MBytes total)

We have tried to use the classic JAVA tools to profile memory usage but they do not report memory objects explaining 2GB of RAM.

The problem is present on very different setups (linux 64 + nvidia, windows 64bits + basic sandybridge laptop....). How can we debug memory allocations in the JNI side ? Any other suggestion appreciated.
