I was just reading up on some random website about memory size of processes (they were interested in comparing KDE vs. Gnome vs. Xfce) and they used exmap to analyze memory usage. http://ktown.kde.org/~seli/memory/ "Effective memory usage from Exmap for apps shows that 12.3M is taken by X, ... 3.0M by HAL daemon (out of which 2M is private data, don't ask me why)..."
