Yes, I have a number of long-lived Timers.  The software is constantly
polling 11 external hardware devices on timers and it broadcasts the
collected results on another timer every second.

I also make intensive use of short-lived timers, many of which only fire
once.  I'm not sure I always dispose() the short-lived timers, could
that be the problem?

Again, if there is any way I can report what is in the heap, I'd be
happy to try to find out.

Regards,
Cliff.
