Please elaborate a bit further, the information you've provided so far is insufficient to analyze this problem. Collect some data showing the memory leak (as described in bug 565981), itemize steps to reproduce, and elaborate on what you've already tested so far (versions, configuration settings, etc.) I notice you have the -pae kernel loaded, so you might want to see if you can reproduce it with the regular kernel. If it is a regression, you should identify when the problem started happening. If you still have older kernels installed, try booting earlier versions.
