Ya, since you're using linuxthreads, these are all really one process
with one single 138MB address space; note that SIZE and RES are
identical all the way down.

Try running "ps axlm", which will show all the processes sorted by
memory usage. If there are more of those perl scripts running, they
may be a contributing factor. Apache with script modules (perl/php
etc) can also suck up lots of memory if you get lots of hits at once.
