I noticed that the memory size as reported by system monitor had increased to 827.5 MB, the only change being the bug reporting tab. So I closed all tabs except this bug reporting page and the memory usage reduced to 816.0 MB (a net increase of over 20MB). I did the same on XP and the memory reduced to 126,728MB (varying slightly) (a reduction of over 50MB).
