Actually that does make a lot of sense, considering the number of reads/writes programs make to it every minute.

One of the following may work, but if you have a program installed that is not allowing Dolphin the memory it needs such as an old version of Kaspersky then your only choice is to uninstall said program.
Fix 1:
Right click the "dolphinwx.exe" icon and click on "Properties"
Select the "Compatibility" tab, then under "Input Settings" check the "Turn off advanced text services for this program" box and then press "OK"
Restart Dolphin and try again.
Fix 2:
Right click on "My Computer" and select "Properties".
Click on the "Advanced" tab and click on the "Settings" button under "Performance".
Click on the "Advanced" tab and click the "Change" button under "Virtual Memory".
Select the drive that contains your game .iso
Select "Custom Size" and enter in at least 1534 (MB) for the "Initial Size" field and at least 3048 (MB) for the "Maximum Size" field.
Click "OK" on all of the windows that were opened. You will then be prompted to prompt you to restart. Do it, then try dolphin again.
it worked for me

Actually it kind of is a problem with Dolphin..
Yes it's true that ATI's drivers are sub par and usually of poor quality, but according to reports Dolphin is the only emulator that suffers from this. PC games generally don't suffer from memory leaks either, Dolphin along with maybe a select few emulators exhibit these memory leaks.
It has to do something with the coding in Dolphin and the ATI drivers, but it isn't the sole fault of the ATI drivers since other emulators don't exhibit this same behavior. So it's an ATI and Dolphin issue and both are equally at fault.
