Please see message #44 in the following closed debian bug report:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=627257
The memory leak you've experienced was eliminated with the advent
procps-ng release 3.3.0.
Trusty 14.04 is now using procps-ng release 3.3.9.
Regards.

Title:
top appears to leak memory
Status in “procps” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: procps
I always have a top screen open, and after a while the memory usage
reported by top for itself grows larger and larger. It is now almost
as large as GIMP and larger than Firefox. See attached screenshot.
