1gb process size

Hi all,
I have an application running on HP. I set max heap size to 128m.
But the process size can raise up to 1GB somehow in jvm1.3.1_01(HP-UX PA-RISC).
This problem won't occur in jvm1.4(HP-UX) or at least jvm1.3.1_05(HP-UX).It's just only
300MB.I suspect about java reflection that I used may cause the c heap leaking of jvm code.
Does anyone know about this problem?
Is it because of jvm implementation?
Is there any report about jvm1.3.1 on HP memory leak?
I tried to find in Bug Database but I can't see anything.
Please help, I don't know the exactly cause just a suspicion.
If you think what else can make the memory being like this, please raise your idea.
Thank you very much.

PS. Does HP-Jvm 1.3.1_02 include the fixed bugs of javasoft 1.3.1_01? Or It's just only from javasoft 1.3.1. If so I can't say that 1.3.1_09 of hp has fixed the bugs that discovered by javasoft since 1.3.1_01-09, right.
