RE: Possible error with releasing native memory in Java
It occurred to me that memory REScan display much more memory than what your application really allocated. In the above example, there are many alloc / dealloc commands, but the memory is RESstuck on a lot. I know that this is not the result of JIT or other memory processes, as you can usually allocate and dealloc 500M, and watch as they RESgo up and down in normal conditions.

The app here does NOT hold on to so much memory. Java says the fixed size is 35 MB and the size of its own memory is 0.
