It could be that DateMan is leaking memory. That wouldn't be surprising,
since the package is from StandAlone. As far as Backdrop Plus also from
StandAlone, it's pretty stable and doesn't seem to have any problem. I've
been using it for maybe the last 3 years without any problem and I never
noticed it leaking memory or having suspicious freezes or errors.
