you are definitely leaking. resident memory size (RES) of 1gb+ is
not a normal situation.
I bet that you have a transaction that is not being completed. First
thing to check is:
select * from pg_stat_activity;
and see if your backend (by pid) is in IDLE, running a query, or 'IDLE
in transaction.'
Also, try not to top-post(paste your response _below_ mine), and send
plain text email where possible.
