Is this a huge Safari memory leak?

I was browsing the Something Awful forums and then I beachball and my disk starts grinding for 5 minutes, at which point I decide to force quit Safari. I decided to run top and Safari had a "VSIZE" of 1.3gb. Is this normal or serious leakage?
Screenshot (click for larger):
Also: Safari has become decidedly more unstable since I upgraded to 10.2.6. Crashes a few times a day. Also, X11 likes to crash whenever I open up certain OS X applications (Preview, Terminal, anything really).
Holding out for 10.2.7, here (or Panther, whichever comes first)

Ignore the VSIZE column unless you know what you're talking about. It's not the actual size of the program in memory, it's more complex than that. You don't seem to have an exorbitantly high number of pagein/outs.

well, I have the same problem. Sometimes Safari starts using up to 85% of the CPU for no reason. It didn't before. Is there a fix?

My copy of Safari developed a new problem yesterday. If I click on the "+" icon to bookmark a site and then click on the bookmarks dropdown to try to file the bookmark, Safari unexpectedly quits.

True but an RSIZE of 154 MB is still way too much.
