What is the proper way to deal with this?  I also found the following

i do, and provides easy test code to expose the issue.

sorry to reply to my own message but i thought seeing as how this want 
documented anywhere i could see and to double check this is an 
appropriate way to fix my problem.

mnesia_recovery:allow_garb(),
mnesia_recovery:start_garb().

that seems to clean up my memory problem.  I guess I shouldn't have said 
memory leak exactly, just seems mnesia doesn't want to free memory while 
under load, and given that my app has constant load that isn't really an 
option for me.
