The render extension preallocates a large chunk of the default colormap in depth 8 in 4.2.0 (maybe in 4.2.1 too, I don't know). This behavior was removed in XFree86 CVS. You mentioned you were using the "nvidia" driver. If so, you can add the option "NoRenderExtension" to the XF86Config file to disable the render extension. This option is only supported by the "nvidia" driver. For other drivers you'll need to use XFree86 CVS (or maybe 4.2.1 if the fix made it in there).
