I've tried turning off a couple of the service checks, but it doesn't seem to make any difference.  Anyone have any suggestions or similar experiences?  Any more information needed?

Matt,

Dag seems to be building all his packages with  --enable-embedded-perl 
(see 
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/nagios/_buildlogs/nagios-1.2-0.rhel3.dag.i386.log.bz2, 
e.g.)
which causes the nagios process to be larger, and may in fact have a 
leak (though i've not verified this).  Your best bet is to rebuild 
without this option enabled, unless of course you need it ;-)

I found that rebuilding without the embedded-perl option resulted in 
nagios processess about 1.5MB in size, w/out any memory consumption 
problems.

Hope this helps,
