[bf1942] Proof of a memory leak?

[Joe]

That's just the BF process alone. I don't have anything else that would
use near that much memory to test but I do run other game servers and
none come close to that amount nor do any steadily increase without ever
decreasing.

Is all that actively in use, or is it cached? Linux has the tendancy to
not free memory until it's needed by something else. You might try
running something else that requires a lot memory, and see if any is
freed by the BF process.
