Eventually, this once led me to have 40 megs allocated to mozilla with just one
window open (with about:blank as the only thing open (no history))

Actual Results:  
2 megs memory allocated to open new window, under 200k freed when closing.

This is part of a general problem of Mozilla taking, but not giving back.

See bug 95130 for more info. I'm marking this as a dupe of that one. That one
should probably be expanded out of the mailnews realm, though.
