I don't know about a memory leak, but I've found too that Asterisk 
benefits from a daily restart in all installations of any kind of 
serious scale that I've managed.  This tends to improve application 
performance, mainly.  Found this to be true of 1.2 and 1.4.

Of course, I could be completely wrong -- I have no real way of knowing 
whether the solution corresponds genuinely underlying problem.
