Have you spent any time trying to understand why memory use grows in the face of this function call? Is that memory growth constant (due to allocations), or transient due to buffering and so on?

If you pre-declare queues/exchanges on the broker then calling amqp_<object>_declare isn't strictly necessary, though of course if the object turns out to be missing (on the broker) you'll have to deal with the channel error (i.e., release the existing channel objects, open a new channel, call amqp_queue_declare and so on).
