[rbak-nsp] SE100 and lack of memory...

hello,

our customer has a strange problem, that I don't know how to answer.

There is a router, that has 7 contexts including local.
2 full BGP routers in different contexts, 4 full feeds (1 in one 
context, 3 in other).
So - 2x full FIB.

There is only 12MB of memory left... ok - 1G in such case is a little.

Memory: Total 802732k, Used 754080k, Free 12192k, Reserved 24k



There is anoter SE100 - with only 2 contexts - local and other for BGP.
Also 4 BGP feeds, but just one full FIB. Much more of VLANs (60 vs. 6) 
lot of QoS etc.

There is 140MB of memory left.

Ok, I understand that 2x full Feed is heavy, but look:
*ntp           3333        2    31716K  00:00:00.44    0.00% run

*arp            265        1    31500K  00:07:46.40    0.00% run

arp            459        1     4572K  24:55:58.44    0.00% run        
  99w6d

Similar with qos and dot1q. * - is the router with 12MB of free memory.


Is this normal ?
Is it some function that more contexts reserves more memory for each 
process like arp/ntp
so that it occupies much more memory than just with a few contexts ??


Regards,
Marcin
