cant find close() method on Apache WorkbookFactory

You need to close the Workbook, not its factory.

Note 1: that in order to properly release resources the Workbook should be closed after use.

Note 2: also that loading from an InputStream requires more memory than loading from a File

Untrue, unless the InputStream is a ByteArrayInputStream.
