possible memory leak?

[Carter Bullard]

Hey Russell,
   Hmmm, this will take me a couple of days
to get to, so if you haven't heard from me by Fri,
then definately bug me about it again, I probably
will have forgotten.

Hi Carter,
	  I notice that the patched ra seems to be be hogging memory.  
One that I have had running for about 15 hours is now around 3MB.  I 
killed one yesterday when it got to 7 MB.  This is a RH linux box BTW:

[argus at k-meter temp]$ uname -a
Linux k-meter.itss 2.2.1 #5 Mon Feb 8 16:42:11 NZDT 1999 i586 unknown

I think that this is a new behaviour since I have had ra running for 
weeks at a time before without problems.  Here is a snapshot from top:
