Memory leak?

I have a custom ROM installed and I seem to have a memory leak somewhere. Or maybe that's just the way WM6.1 works. I sure hope not. This has happened on every custom ROM I have installed. I want to know if it's a certain program I'm using or if it happens with everyone else.

After I reboot and all my programs startup, I have about 17MB available. I sure wish I had more, but 17MB should be enough to run just about anything.

After using my phone for a day or so, my available RAM starts to drop until I only have just a few MB and can't run anything. I've looked at the running processes using dotFred's task manager and I've also run Hibernate (the one in QuickMenu) and I only get maybe a MB or two freed up. I eventually am forced to do a soft reset maybe every one or two days. Frustrating! Especially when I want to take a quick picture of something and the camera program says "Sorry, not enough memory".

Does anyone else have this same problem? Does anyone know of any solutions?
