Looking at this discussion from the outside, it seems to me that the point of 
contention here is the question: What is the correct way to measure memory 
consumption?

From reading the mails, it seems that one side wants to compare what Bind 
reports internally and which may not count everything the OS has allocated for 
that process and the other side just wants to know how much memory is not 
available for other tasks when this is running.

May I suggest that the discussion first agrees what to measure and then agrees 
on a method for measuring that number.
