Why? Because the garbage collector never needs to remove the object. You're using 20mb out of maybe 100mb to 1000mb or more? So the garbage collector looks at that and says "plenty o' room left!" and doesn't run. It's weird if you're used to having explicit control over object destruction, but it works. More importantly it's efficient. Waiting, and then removing lots of objects at once, is actually best for throughput in the long run. If you really need different behavior, check out Oracle's documentation on tuning the garbage collector. You can choose what I believe is called an incremental garbage collector which will work more like what you are thinking. <http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/gc-tuning-6-140523.html> Found via Google with search terms "java garbage collection tuning".
