cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_tcp_timeout_established and see it yourself. Chances are you read 432000 (seconds) that's 5 days. Of course if you don't use iptables that's not a problem, but I guess everyone running a server uses a firewall. I can't tell why, but estabilished connection growing happen when my server hits the assp maxSMTPsessions limit, and that easily eat memory for 5 days. Lowering that limit, not keeping track or other tweaks not solve the issue that assp should properly manage and close estabilished connections. That said 1.9.2.0(1.0.05) is stable and running on a test box using less than 100 MB ram for 8 days managing 20k messages per day for a test domain.
