Hi!

This not a Enhydra problem and it does not look like a problem.
This is the normal JVM memory management behaviour. The garbage colector 
is invoked by the JVM only under certain circumstances.
This is why the memory is not freed as soon as possible but only when 
the JVM think that it can waste some CPU cycles calling GC or when it's 
running out of memory.
Calling java.lang.Runtime.getRuntime().gc() is considered bad ideia 
because you are trying to force gc instead of leaving it to be managed 
by de JVM. This can make performance penalties in you application. The 
gc should only be invoked directly if you know what you are doing and 
have a very good reason for it.

I recommend you to see some docs about JVM and GC.

I hope i helped.

PS: The GC behaviour is JVM dependent and can vary between implementations.
