Normal Tire pressure loss following a ride.

I am in the habit of checking tire pressure each ride... Should I need air, i'd rather do it with the floor pump at home... My clue as to a potential minor leak is how much air one looses during a 20 mile plus ride... Normally , It is like 3-5 lbs... For quite some time, on my commute bike the front has been loosing 7-10 lbs. range and the back less than 5. But, it has been quite some time.. And so far, it has not gone flat.. How much air do you expect to loose during a ride and has it any significance.
