The heap utilization by the program was around 600MB but the memory used by the data that I use is around 150MB. So how does it manifest itself as 4 times the amount of heap memory consumed?

Try with a couple of System.gc()'s  before checking memory from within
the JVM, and then going into some sleep and checking the memory as
observed from the OS (do e.g. 10 GCs in a row - more than one actually
makes a difference sometimes - might be finalization and stuff?).

If you're concerned with the process-allocated memory, you should read
the link I posted as reply to Carfield's post.

Endre.
