Hi all,
I took Nico's advice and switched to the backclear ppa provided by k0ekk0ek (thanks, and thanks Felix) and found that I still had the memory leak.  So thinking that maybe it shouldn't be blamed on the no-backfill (thanks Bryce) or backclear patches I reverted to the default x-server-core that is currently shipping with Karmic.  Poor performance and I *still* had a memory leak.  So to reiterate: I have memory leaks with fglrx paired with any version of x-server currently out there (default, backclear and no-backfill).

I have now reverted to radeon and the current x-server-core that ships
with Karmic (2:1.6.4-2ubuntu4) and have had no increase in memory even
though I have been doing things that typically would have sent it
rocketing (flash movies, heavy browsing).  My mem is still sitting
comfortably at 11%, normally it would be upwards of 30% at this point.

I am using Karmic 32 bit fresh install as of last night, ATI Mobility
Radeon HD 3400 Series in a Lenovo T400.
