"top -o size" will show you which processes are requiring lots of  
memory; it's possible that one of them is leaking, or it may simply  
be that you are trying to run too much on a machine with limited  
RAM.  Increasing the amount of RAM in your machine is probably going  
to improve the performance of the system significantly...
