Hmmm....  I just looked, and why is my bitcoind taking 2.729 GB of memory?  That's a little excessive, no?  I have 87 connections, so maybe that's why.

That is a lot but with that number of connections it is possible. What version are you using?

Latest version.  0.9.2.1.  Nevermind though, I actually read it wrong -- memory use it just over 1GB, so not too bad for 80 - 90 connections at any given time.  Ohhh, I also have the -txindex option turned on, so that might be doing it as well.

I also have txindex=1. I should've mentioned that in my original post. I don't know if that affects memory usage, but it wouldn't be surprising.
