That would be my first suspicion as well - except that heapy's results 
agree so well with what I expect, and I can't think of any reason I'd be 
using 10x more memory. If heapy is wrong, then I need to try and figure 
out what's using up all that memory some other way... but I don't know 
what that way might be.

Not as far as I know.
