Seaside caches the most recently used page states for the most recent 
session so that the user can backtrack.  This means that memory will 
grow as you use the application, but not indefinitely.  By default, 
you'll get about 10 pages worth of cached state.  If you're seeing 
significantly more than that (it keeps growing for 50 clicks or 
something), something's wrong.  After you've played with it for a 
while, what does the "Memory Profile" link on the toolbar tell you?
