You haven't enabled the embedded interpreter, or you wouldn't see
"mimedefang.pl" processes.  You need the -E option to
mimedefang-multiplexor.

Even if you enable the embedded interpreter, "ps" won't reveal
much, because it doesn't show how much of that memory is shared.
"top" is the key; you should see much more memory shared in 2.39+embedded
than in 2.38.
