'pmap -x' may help identify those pieces of memory.

I just had a quick look at this. To be honest, this is the first I'd heard that top was in opensolaris. I've always used prstat. But yes, top does leak heap space:

As a useful data-point, the 'top' that I use (version 3.7) was compiled from source code and does not leak any memory on Solaris 10. Fixing the leak is likely as easy as using a more modern version of the software.
