galeon memory usage

This may be more appropriate for the galeon-user mailing list but some server 
bug does not allow me to currently subscribe.


I note that the galeon FAQ indicates that large memory values do not reflect 
the real situation.  However, it seems to me that galeon has a memory leak 
from what I can see.

Using either the gnome system monitor or top (to track the galeon-bin 
process), galeon uses about 22MB for RSS when it is started (no matter how 
many instances you start).  As you continue browsing the Internet, the RSS 
value grows over time (it currently reads 104MB on my system with Shared as 
22MB).

To me this looks like a bug.  Is this known.  What do I not understand that 
makes this OK?
