Ther
The observed behaviour is *with* the persistent journal.
Forwarding to inetutils-syslogd and using Storage=none results in steady
memory consumption at 20% of the peak memory I experienced while testing
Storage=persistent (and that's for both journald and syslogd combined).

Ahh.
Is there currently any functionality in journald for controlling
flushing to limit RSS or is this just a case where journald's built-in
logging capabilities are not currently suited to constrained systems?

For avoidance of doubt, RuntimeMaxUse does not refer to RSS, but
rather to the "disk" space

Not that I'm aware of.
That said, if you have constrained memory requirements, I wouldn't log
