You don't need insider information to know that memory management has never been MS's strongpoint on any product/application. Their own (I hesitate to use the plural) operating systems aren't good at it... so why should we expect it at all?

As someone who had to use MS's J++, I'll say that the number of crashes a windows system went through in a month after running the VM, garbage collection couldn't have been completely implemented. And as I said before, its not like the OS will go in and adequately clean up after a terminated application.
