it's the tabs that cause memory leaks, if you open a new tab you use more memory, but since it only uses one process for the browser it for some reason keeps using that bit of memory. Same with IE7.
Open a bunch of tabs and soon you'll be using 100MB+, even if you've closed all but one.

What they need to do is open a new process each time you open a tab and then that process gets killed if you close the tab...
