There were some issues with Whisker 0.92 creating a lot of dependents, which I believe weren't getting GC'd. (Hmm, although maybe this was only an issue with 3.2gamma.)
See http://groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/45000 and responses for related discussion.
In any case, I'll be looking at this issue before I release Whisker 0.93, after Squeak 3.2 is finalized.
