This problem also happens on Linux and Windows.
Looking at your issue I think you are running with the default settings.

** copy-paste from the issue:
Heap

0x2db50000)

64MB for tenured and 64MB for perm gen.
Try increasing perm gen to 128MB and see what happens.
With the tool 'jstat -gc <pid> 1000' you watch memory usage of the  
different object generations in java.

Do you reload your context sometimes in Tomcat?
It is a known issue that with some singleton constructions you can keep  
the classloader referenced, so classes (which are in the perm gen) are not  
garbage collected.

Is this expected behaviour. You have more than one QuartzScheduler running.
** copy-paste from the issue:
0x0820b600 JavaThread "QuartzScheduler_Worker-1" [_thread_blocked,  
id=136361984]
...
0x08457000 JavaThread "QuartzScheduler_Worker-1" [_thread_blocked,  
id=138768896]
**

It might be that reloading the context in Tomcat doesn't stop the Quartz  
threads, so all previous class remain referenced in memory.
