80MB+ memory consumption by nmap 3.95

["Ganga Bhavani" <GBhavani () everdreamcorp com>]

I've upgraded nmap from 3.75 to 3.95. I'm running nmap on windows 2000 professional with following cmd line params:
nmap -O -F -oN out.nmap 172.20.10.90/20

Till now it has scanned around 3315 nodes and found 557 nodes. It is still executing. The memory it has consumed till 
now is 80MB. Is this behavior normal?  We never found such behavior in the 3.75 version of nmap. Can someone please let 
me know if they have seen similar behavior? Any help in identifying the reason for this memory consumption is 
appreciated.

Thanks,
Ganga
