How to garbage collect ruby objects between requests in ruby 1.8.7

I am currently looking into memory leakage issue for an existing huge application (ruby 1.8.7, Rails 3.0.19). For finding out the main problem areas, I used oink gem which is a Log parser to identify actions which significantly increase VM heap size. Using this I was able to optimize the code accordingly.

But is there a way we can garbage collect the freed ruby objects between requests so that the memory is cleared up as and when required.

Thanks in advance!
