problem of loading charge

[JNBS <jb...@etu.utc.fr>]

I'me currently working on an xml/xsl architecture where I have to deal with 
sequential XSL Transformations.
I sequentially make instances of XSLTProcessor, but the pb is that (despite the 
garbage collector), the memory is not totally free after the end of the xslt 
process.
Here is an extract of my log files :

---
executing xslt process PR_REFORM_GAP
[GC 932K->567K(1984K), 0.0053343 secs]
[GC 1077K->579K(1984K), 0.0031178 secs]
[GC 1082K->917K(1984K), 0.0086688 secs]
...
[GC 21229K->19674K(27192K), 0.0078370 secs]
[GC 21402K->19844K(27192K), 0.0081041 secs]
[Full GC 19909K->18258K(32736K), 0.4322820 secs]

the heap'size is now 18258K after the 1st process, despite I set the 
XSLTProcess=null & XSLTInputSource=null & XSLTResultTarget=null

(does the XSLTProcess instanciate objects that are not treated by the garbage 
collector?)
