slow memory leak when running gvim



Initially I have

$free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          1011        806        204          0         67        458
-/+ buffers/cache:        280        730
Swap:          953          0        953

Open 10 gvim windows 
$gvim; gvim; gvim; gvim; gvim; gvim; gvim; gvim; gvim; gvim;

quit all the windows. Then I have

$free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          1011        809        201          0         67        460
-/+ buffers/cache:        281        730
Swap:          953          0        953

Is this normal? A 3-4MB additional memory is being used for every 10 gvim 
windows opened. Does anyone else see this behaviour? I am using debian etch, 

$dpkg -l vim\* | grep ^ii
ii  vim-common      6.4-007+1      Vi IMproved - Common files
ii  vim-full        6.4-007+1      Vi IMproved - enhanced vi editor - full 
fled

thanks
