Is it being 'eaten' or is it just null and waiting for the garbage collector to
come get it?  Just using the system tools in NT won't tell you much that you
need to diagnose this.  To me, it sounds like each loop does 5M worth of work
with no object re-use.  If the garbage collector can fire before you run out of
memory, you'll get back the dead references.  Your NT monitors, however, won't
show you that; it'll just show you the total heap size.
