Do you run beagled with --debug-memory?  That's a helpful thing to do,
because it prints out memory statistics every 5 seconds in the Beagle
logs.  That would help us know if it's a gradual increase or a sudden
one.

Are you running the latest heap-shot code out of SVN?  I've run it a
bunch of times without any crashes myself.  I could add a
--no-auto-snapshot option so that it didn't snapshot automatically, but
that wouldn't help you with your released version. :/
