Yeah I'm using top to measure resource usage. I'll reboot a server (virtual server of course), and at boot time memory usage is maybe ~200mb. After a few days it's skyrocketed to consume all 2GB in the case of the smaller application server we tested (haven't messed with the other one since it's a public-facing application). What am I doing wrong here?
