Try these options:
1. pack the ZODB regularly (lessens your undo options)
That wont significantly reduce memory usage unless you havent packed for a very long time. The 'Cache Parameters' page has a 'Total number of objects in the database' field. Under filestorage you can expect to reclaim a few tens of bytes for each object romoved from this total by packing.
That's generally true, but Squishdot is sort of a pathalogical case if postings (either articles or replies) are added frequently. Adding a reply changes every posting above it in the reply tree which generates ZODB growth both for the changes to the postings and for the btree index changes.
