X server resident memory usage went back up to 500MB and stayed that way even 
after I killed all GUI programs except the terminal and panel applets.   Logged 
out and back in to restart X server.  Usage went down to 200MB virtual and 69MB 
resident.     Reloading firefox, and all my tabs, did not affect X server 
memory usage.  Reading a document:
ftp://ftp.ams.org/pub/tex/doc/amsfonts/amsfndoc.pdf
(font heavy, since it describes a font) using okular caused X server resident 
memory to jump up to 200MB and virtual memory to increase by about the same 
amount.     However, this memory was freed when I exited okular.     Using 
evince to read the same document did not cause any increase in X server usage.  
 xrestop is still reporting 17MB of usage.
