Can you get more details on what the specific clients to
these processes are doing ? This will help me track it
down....

One thing that might cause this is enumeration of over 1000
print jobs in a UNIX print queue. This will cause the image
to grow (but the memory is deallocated once the queue is 
enumerated).

Thanks,
