Eddie,

to process some queries, MySQL creates temp tables. If you let them be up to 128 MB HEAP tables, they can eat up too much memory. Use SHOW PROCESSLIST and EXPLAIN SELECT to monitor if there are such queries.

But if the memory usage gradually climbs, then it might be a memory leak.

Best regards,
