I am a programmer, and I can tell you that if VM keeps growing like that, it does indicate a memory leak issue.
Perhaps this is different from the standard 8GB VM behavior mentioned above? I too have seen VM grow to over 30 GB -- and I don't buy the statement that this is OK. It is indicative that at some point the application allocated way more memory than expected of a simple menu. Also, I would be very surprised if there is no way to tell Cocoa GC what the max allocation of VM should be. Even 8 GB for a menu item is bogus.
