So are the applications running off of the unionfs?

I haven't been closely following development, but perhaps unionfs is
pinning much more memory.  If the executables are demand-loaded via
mmap, it might be due to shortcomings in the current mmap support. Have you
compared /proc/{slabinfo,meminfo} for the two scenarios?
