According to the below notes:
ORAAGENT or ORAROOTAGENT High Resource Usage [ID 1062676.1]
Bug 10168006 - oraagent process memory growth periodically [ID 10168006.8]
confirms it is a known bug and as a work around just the kill the process and oracle will re spawn the process.

Dear Sameer,
I am facing this problem with 11g2RAC on Windows. When oraagent consume memory too much, kill process or restart server may temporarily solve. But the problem will comeback again after a couple days. Do you have any suggest in this case.
Any help will be very appreciate.
Ch
my topas command show lots of pgsp for orarootagent.bin. What is the first command you used to see the process consuming lots of memory.
use this:
prstat -s size
prstat usage is explained here.
