I've run performance test suite with focus on
possible memory leaks.

I reused the same test cases (tests and test
infrstructure) as we use for measure UI
responsiveness.
http://performance.netbeans.org/qa/Performance.html

I would like to point out here, there is no call
for you to fix reported memory leaks, first of all
leaks must be find, this is only  hint, there are
many places where leak can be found (test harness,
test case, xtest , jemmy, jelly....).

Performance team members should go through all
reported issues and reassigne it against
appropriate person/module or after short
investigation close it with appropriate comments.


PerformanceTestCase uses next :
-------------------------

   runGC(5);
   initialize();

   repeate X-times {
           prepare();
           open();
           close();
 
           runGC(3);
            
            Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
            memoryUsage[i] = runtime.totalMemory()
- runtime.freeMemory();
    }

    findMinimumOfMeasuredMemoryUsages();
        
    logDeltasAgainstMinimumMemory();

------------------

and runGC(X) is implemented this way :

-------------
    public void runGC(int i){
        for(int gc=0; gc < i; gc ++){
            try{
                System.runFinalization();
                System.gc();
                Thread.currentThread().sleep(500);
                System.gc();
                Thread.currentThread().sleep(500);
                System.gc();
                Thread.currentThread().sleep(500);
            }catch(Exception exc){}
        }
    }
