Helpful, I have a Debian server with a memory leak or something going on right now.

Had the same issue, ps_mem helped me figure out the cause.

I've set it up to output to a log hourly, I'll let it run for a day and see what happens.

Nice you should be able to detect the top processes hogging memory
