The BGP doesn't seem out of sorts for this router. I could turn off soft
reconfiguration and free up most of that 90MB of RAM. Here is its BGP
summary:
BGP table version is 5776429, main routing table version 5776429
63720 network entries and 573492 paths using 26953992 bytes of memory
65951 BGP path attribute entries using 5294260 bytes of memory
92865 BGP route-map cache entries using 1485840 bytes of memory
Dampening enabled. 25 history paths, 104 dampened paths
279219 received paths for inbound soft reconfiguration
BGP activity 272135/208415 prefixes, 15338564/14765072 paths
2970489 prefixes revised.
Its DRAM utilization seems pretty stable.

I can't make heads or tails of the fast memory utilization which is why I
brought this up.
Thanks,
