I did some digging and found, that "show mem dead" is awfully long. Feels like millions of lines (could be ten thousands of lines, too). Most of them refer to a process that I can not find anything about:

07406718 0000000040 074066C8 0740676C 001 -------- -------- 001FF434 acct periodic timer

"acct periodic timer" - doh! Anyone with an idea what that is?

Here is the top output of "sh mem dead total":

 Dead Proc Summary for: Processor

     PC          Total  Name
 0x001FF434    1078452  acct periodic timer
 0x0078EF44        114  Virtual Exec
 0x0078EED8        114  Virtual Exec
 0x0078EEC0        114  Virtual Exec
 0x006D0AD8         79  TCP CB

Looks like "acct periodic timer" is indeed forgetting to tidy up it's
room lots of times. Any help is appreciated.

Thank

For the records:

the reason for my memory leak problem on latest 12.0(33)S was the
following configuration statement (for whatever reason it was there):

  aaa accounting update periodic 5

Removed this statement and reload once (to make the Check Heaps process
run quickly again) and everythings fine.
