Start with making some good tools to visualize which memory is used for what, 
e.g. how many code pages are in use by a certain library, how many data pages 
are in use by each process, how many pages are actually shared and by which 
processes, how much memory is the kernel using and for which tasks.

It may also be interesting to relate memory usage in the X-server with the 
actual applications. I believe there are tools for that already.

Once you are able to account somewhat accurately for all the memory in a 
system you will be able to identify problem spots and I'm sure that a lot of 
people will then be interested in solving such problem areas.

Cheers,
Waldo
