This is the relevant bug: http://code.google.com/p/go/issues/detail?id=909

As the discussion there and in the thread says, the root problem is that Go uses a conservative garbage collector, and on 32-bit a lot more values look like pointers than on 64-bit, so many more things don't get freed in long-running processes. Seems not to be easy to fix.
