Comment:

 Is the 0.2.4.x series any better for you?  We're probably not going to be
 able to change how 0.2.3 handles RAM at this point in the 0.2.3 lifecycle.

 On the other hand, if it *is* a simple memory leak, and you can run Tor
 for a while under valgrind, that would tell us where the leak is.  (For
 information on how to do that, see instructions in doc/HACKING in the Tor
 repository, though you may need extra trickery to get it to work in a
 typical debian-based Tor installation.)
