[6.303] Memory use climbing

JimmyM
I'm using 6.303 on a Jetway C7 motherboard, 40GB SATA HD, 512MB RAM. It's been running since early December without incident. However, the RAM usage has climbed steadily from ~120MB to ~291MB. In the yearly memory usage graph, it's pretty much a straight line linear increase.
Has anyone seen this type of usage before?

I have this entry in my processes list...
USER       PID %CPU %MEM   VSZ  RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
root      9877  0.0 37.0 168708 166964 ?     SN    2006 14:52 /usr/sbin/snmpd -c /etc/snmpd.conf -Ls daemon

    yes that's how linux works.  it will grab memory for caching to speed thiings up.  As long as your system is responsive and not showing bad performance it's fine.
