This is not related to backgroundrb, but yes, we see and have seen process growth like this. After very long investigations, we believe most of our problems to have been attributable to Ruby memory leaks. See here: http://pennysmalls.com/2008/03/23/ruby-leaks-memory/ I recommend using Ruby 1.8.7 if you are able.
