X resource leak?

User-agent: Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/23.0.60 (windows-nt)

On a emacs session that is running for 2 days with light usage, xrestop
shows this:

res-base Wins  GCs Fnts Pxms Misc   Pxm mem  Other   Total   PID Identifier
2c00000    99   43    1 11251 11297     2445K    269K   2714K  5460 Emacs: 
*svn-st

For a previous session, after 20 days, the numbers were even higher
(replace 11000 above with ~ 30000 pixmaps and misc objects).

Emacs is by far the most X resource hungry application, with a crowded
web browser as a distant second, using 1453 pixmaps and 896 misc
objects.

A fresh emacs session starts with 45 pixmaps and 69 misc objects.

I'm not an experienced Emacs user on X-based graphical systems, so I
ask: are this numbers normal?

This is on Ubuntu 8.10.

In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.3 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.14.4)
 of 2009-01-13 on qcore
Windowing system distributor `The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.10502000
