java.lang.OutOfMemoryErrors seen during automated Embedded Console testing

During the automated runs of the Embedded Jopr JSFUnit tests, we are starting to see this error: "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space". This error sometimes occurs during the runtime discovery scan that takes place after creating or deleting a resource using the Embedded Console. A sample error message is shown below and the cargo.log file from the test run is attached. The last time the tests were able to run without encountering this error was when the tests were run against Branch_5_x r86264 (as seen here http://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/view/JBoss%20AS/job/JBoss-AS-5.1.x-EMBJOPR-JSFUNIT/220 ). We have been seeing the "OutOfMemoryError" when running the tests against more recent versions of Branch_5_x.

This error was seen when running the tests against Branch_5_x r86425:
