Ok I have done the pastebinits that you requested.  Appears they sent ok. 
 The memory usage was a bit more under control this flashing session, but 
still high and growing.

On usb devices connected, what started all this is trying to get the Asus 
USB-BT211 bluetooth dongle to work with the Beaglebone Black.  I don't 
really remember if the dongle was plugged in for my original email. The 
pastebinits that were sent, do not have the dongle plugged in.  After I did 
the pastebinits, I did plug in the dongle and did not see any real change 
in the memory used or rate of memory used.  Although with both the first 
email I sent and this email I have not installed the bluetooth or atheros 
modules.

On the bluetooth dongle subject, it appears I chose poorly from both 
experience and from the Google posts on this dongle.  I did finally get the 
dongle to light up and pair with my phone after I did an aptitude install 
firmware-atheros.  But, then the memory problem started rearing its head 
and I have not been back to that problem.

I appreciate your attention to this and am happy to provide anymore data or 
run any tests needed.

Regards,

Craig Mehan
