[c-nsp] Memory leak

[Clinton Work]

I would look at the Holding column rather than Allocated. Example below
is from a 3745 running IOS 12.3.

Router#show proc mem | inc TCP|Hold
  PID TTY  Allocated      Freed    Holding    Getbufs    Retbufs Process
   71   0          0     100388      12852          0        640 TCP Timer
   72   0     229828          0      14352          0          0 TCP Proto
  129   0      55764          0       6852          0          0 TCP Listener

The CCO has a pretty good document on troubleshooting memory leaks.
