I think something (Tomcat,icefaces,JVM) is still leaking somewhere. This is because during load testing JVM's CMS Old Gen is commited to the max and GC is unable free any memory. Best JDK so fas has been the latest JDK 1.7.0 snapshot, it manages to free some memory where others (JDK 1.6) stay totally stuck.
