This is lacking a bit of data. Do you have GNOME, FireFox, KDE, anything, running when you took that sample? X itself doesn't need much memory. The applications interacting with the X server make it allocate more memory. So please if you think X is leaking or overconsuming memory, bring forward more informations.
