I still believe this is what's happening for me on Linux 3.x and Darwin 10.7.x
when I kill a buffer and the claimed memory is not given back to the kernel.
The way I use Emacs now is to load and terminate it more often than I'd like to.
I don't tend to keep it open for a whole work day and definitely not use
--daemon.

Any ready-made instrumentation to reveal what's going on for find the root cause
or explanation of what's going?
