Has anybody else noticed this ?

My -current is quite out of date and I don't run normally run X on it
but my $0.02:

Are you using jemalloc or phkmalloc? Does fiddling with MALLOC_OPTIONS
have any effect? Have you hit an edge case somewhere?

jemalloc, MALLOC_OPTIONS=aj

Do you have any long-running clients? X clients can store objects in
the server and some web browsers have been known to simulate Xserver
leaks.

It certainly correlates with firefox, but restarting firefox does
not relieve the memory pressure.
