If you're running on RHEL/CentOS, there is a known issue with the Ruby 
that ships with that distribution that causes memory leaks. I have a 
cronjob that restarts puppetd each night to ensure that it doesn't use 
too much memory.

An alternative is to not run puppetd as a service, but rather as a 
cronjob with the --no-daemonize and --onetime command-line options. That 
way, puppetd never remains resident.

Hope that helps,
Avi
