JDK 6u25 and 6u26 high memory usage

I've been running 3.4d for quite some time on Centos5.6 and JDK 6u23. Because 6u25 and 6u26 promise higher performance, I tried to upgrade to one of these versions.
Strangely, the memory usage skyrockets with both these JDK's. From ~700 MB to > 1GB. Ofcourse with the same configuration:

-server -Xss512k -Xms600m -Xmx600m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -XX:NewSize=300m -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=64m -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+CMSIncrementalMode -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=80

I tried this on x86 and x64 version of Centos + matching JDK. If I return to 6u23, everything is normal again.
Anyone any suggestions why this happens and if something cane be done against it?

Did no one else notice this increase in memory usage?
As I said: I tried it on 32 en 64 bit Centos 5.6 and the increase in memory usage is significant. On another Alfresco instance on Windows Server 2008r2 x64 this increase doesn't show.
