:> just to add to debgging info:

:please do not hijack my thread, your data seems unrelated.

    Ha ha... Simon is on a roll here!

:> top -S outputs:

:it probably also tells you about wired, buffer and active, right?

    There's no leak (in KMs post).  The OS keeps as few 'free' pages
    around as it can.  As many are possible are used to cache filesystem
    data.

    Simon found the leak in the linux exec code, nice!
