Not exactly, but I also suffer from this problem: only in very rare
cases, and definitely not jythonc related, but in an embedded
interpreter. Up to now I tend to think that it is my code which is
leaking, but you never know...
You could try to set 
  python.options.showJavaExceptions=true
in the registry, and maybe get the stack trace of the exception caught
by Jython.
My feeling is that there is another restriction of the JVM, since in my
case the size of the java process is far less than the -mx upper bound.

Probably not very helpful,
Oti.
