[Evolution] Bug#519169: Confirming excessive memory usage

[brian m. carlson]

I can confirm this bug.  Evolution uses a huge amount of memory:

     PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
   10637 bmc       20   0 4290m 1.6g  10m S    0 53.0   6:58.79 evolution

Using 53% of 3 GiB of memory is completely unacceptable.  This behavior
started with 2.24; it was not present in 2.22.  If you'd like me to
provide debugging information, just ask.
