Sorry to say, but things arent that simple 
You need to take in account the:
- hardware (processor, vidcard, ram)
- software (windows version, service packs, drivers, hd fragmentation)
- graphical settings of the game
- the specific mission which was used to test
In my opinion with fast hardware (core2duo, geforce 8000 series card) you wont have any "memory leaks" at all, so we should rather use the term "optimizing for slower hardware"
