Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

When evolution is left open it slowly eats the available memory (I have
often seen >2GiB of memory usage by the evolution process ) and swap
space. Sometimes it crashes all by itself, sometimes I have quit the
program or kill the process. because the system comes to a craw because
of the heavy swap usage.

Even if this is not a memory leak I still have the impression that
evolution has a "rather big" memory footprint...
