On most versions of "top", examining RES alone gives a completely
misleading impression of what's happening.  RES minus SHR is a better
estimate of what the process has really consumed.  I don't know why the
behavior changed from 9.1 to 9.2, but this measurement alone is not
evidence that you have an actual problem.
