Tor Server excessive ram usage

A number of people on or-talk are reporting very high memory usage (512MB to 1GB) for their servers. This entry is to track the issues and provide feedback to those experiencing the problem.
See http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/Jul-2007/msg00135.html for the start of the thread.

If you are experiencing this problem, please list your operating system (uname -rmpio), tor version, zlib version, openssl version, exit server or not, and virtual/resident memory usage of Tor.

Thanks!
