Memory Leak Using Top

I ran the following test:

(1)     Boot up YDL 4.0 on Apple G5 Xserve

(2)     Start up into KDE and open terminal window

(3)     Start top and note initial RAM usage report

(4)     At end of 12 hours (basically overnight), note top RAM usage
report

 

What is observed is an initial RAM report on the order of 100 MB RAM,
but the final report after 12 hours, running nothing but top

Is 2 GigaBytes RAM, or 100% of the available RAM.  Does anyone know
anything about this apparent memory leak?
