Re: stack size

In each class file, their is a code attribute associated with every method. 
In this code attribute is the max stack size used by that method.
Theoretically you could instrument your code using BCEL to add/subtract this 
value at the start/end of each method to a grand total per thread.

See
4.7.3 The Code Attribute

    Code_attribute {
    	u2 attribute_name_index;
    	u4 attribute_length;
    	u2 max_stack;
    	u2 max_locals;
    	u4 code_length;
    	u1 code[code_length];
    	u2 exception_table_length;
    	{    	u2 start_pc;
    	      	u2 end_pc;
    	      	u2  handler_pc;
    	      	u2  catch_type;
    	}	exception_table[exception_table_length];
    	u2 attributes_count;
    	attribute_info attributes[attributes_count];
    }
