I have no idea if this is related, but it seemed to work for me:

Windows 7 apparently throttles the amount of packets sent at a time, so I removed this. Here is the link: How to use the throttling mechanism to control network performance in Windows Vista

And here are the steps. READ THE LINK FIRST! Don't mess with your registry unless you are very careful. You could seriously screw things up.
* Open regedit
* Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile
* There will be an entry for network performance throttling, default value is 10; set it to FFFFFFFF hex (willl look like 0xFFFFFFFF to the right of the entry)
* Reboot

Yeah, I'm on XP. Checked out the registry key but that is not there. Good news though is Valve has stated as of yesterday they've narrowed down the cause of the memory leak and are working on a fix. Will see how it goes, but they've been pretty good about this since the oB migration

Yay!
