[c-nsp] ASA memory usage, finding a leak

Anyone know how to decipher a 'show proc mem' on an ASA (ver 7.2.3)?
Seeing a memory loss of about 2MB per day on our 5520. I assumed that
for a given process, 'Allocated' minus 'Freed' would give you how much
it's still holding, but for some processes, this results in a negative
number, and for others, it's a 500 megabyte difference (ASA only has
512MB total). I looked through the interim release notes for 7.2
versions, but can't view bug CSCsk49149, which involves ESMTP inspection
which we're using. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Chuck
