 It isn't just 9764 - the same thing happens on the current stable 
 release 2.1 (23 may 2009).

Oh dear! Does anybody have any recommendations about how far back
to go to get more reasonable behaviour. What about release 2.0?

The last version I have that doesn't normally gobble memory is r8634 
(21 Jul 2009).

 Not here it doesn't (9761 at present) - been running since before
 midnight and using 4544K + 1344K DA on RO5.14 on 512M Iyonix and the
 ROOL clean boot - installed last night. 465M free.

Just downloaded 9765 and browsed a number of sites.  Peak DA usage is 
now 75.6M.

I just tried with r8240, which was the last version I
downloaded before the memory problems started.

The page initially appeared, but then, with no warning at
all NetSurf just diappeared from the icon bar.

RPC StrongARM, RO4.02, 66M (or thereabouts)
