[Evolution] Bug#462664: evolution-data-server: e-d-s eats my memory

[Roland Mas]

Package: evolution-data-server
Version: 1.12.2-1
Severity: important

There seems to be a rather important memory leak in e-d-s.  After
habing it running for a few days, here's what top(1) reports:

28781 roland 20 0 670m 235m 4288 S 0.0 23.3 0:39.73 evolution-data-server

  I wouldn't normally use the "important" severity for a memory leak,
but that one is so large that even my swap partitions get saturated
after a few days, which means I can't suspend to disk because there's
no room left.  Of course, I could kill e-d-s before suspend, but then
the Gnome panel crashes...
