Public bug reported:

When first started, rhythmbox's rhythmbox-metadata process tends to grab
all available memory (up to 1.1 GB) for a few seconds, then releases
everything for a while. Then it slowly creeps up to 1.1 GB again. This
repeats indefinitely until I manually kill the offending process, at
which point it respawns, although no longer taking up more than 10 MB.

System:
Ubuntu 12.10 with all updates installed; 64-bit

$ apt-cache policy rhythmbox
rhythmbox:
  Installed: 2.97-1ubuntu5
  Candidate: 2.97-1ubuntu5
