You can use svccfg(1M) to enable user-level memory debugging on ilb.  It may 
cause the ilb daemon to dump core.  (And you're just noticing this in the 
process, not kernel memory consumption, correct?)

As root:

        svcadm disable -t ilb
        svccfg -s ilb setenv LD_PRELOAD libumem.so
        svccfg -s ilb setenv UMEM_DEBUG default
        svccfg -s ilb refresh
        svcadm enable ilb

That should enable user-level memory debugging.  If you get a coredump, save it 
and share it.  If you don't and the ilb daemon keeps running, eventually please:

        gcore `pgrep ilbd`

and share THAT corefile.  You can also do this by youself:

        mdb <ilbd-core>
        > ::findleaks

and share ::findleaks.

Once you're done generating corefiles, repeat the steps above, but use 
"unsetenv LD_PRELOAD" and "unsetenv UMEM_DEBUG" instead of the setenv lines.

Hope this helps,
Dan
