Process mib2agt uses a lot of memory

When I look at our HP-UX 11.0 servers (i.e. by using glance), the process mib2agt seems to use quite a lot of memory.
For instance, on one of our testservers it takes up more than 60 MBytes of memory (virtual memory about 200 MB). Is this usual behaviour, or should patches be installed?
Can you tune the maximum amount of memory that can be used by mib2agt?

Hi Jan:

The 'mib2agt' has had some memory leak bugs. Patch PHSS_23670 fixes them.

The mib2agt is known to have problems causing "memory leaks". If not controlled by patching it, it could cause system problems as sserious as a hang. I recommend you patch it with the latest patch.
