Hello, a 16.04 64-bit user here. I found this thread in 12-2016 after

really fast and no bugs. Great Work!

I was having the same issue: lots of RAM usage, increasing over time,
even with no applications open. I uninstalled the evolution package
(just that one, no other evolution-*), and the problem seems to be
fixed. Still testing, but I haven't seen excessive ram usage since
yesterday.

I even tried Ubuntu 16.04.1 with Kernel 4.7, Unfortunately still problem
is there.. after that.. I have seen gnome-system-monitor and found that
gnome-software using more than 110 MiB of my RAM and Evolution services
using My RAM unnecessarily .. Killing these services reduce My RAM usage
so that
Comparison of Ubuntu 14.04.5 to Ubuntu 16.04.1 using gnome-system-
monitor

evolution-source-registry 4.8 MB
The ubuntu-software-center uses 111MB after the program is opened but not
constantly like
I'm not sure what your asking or saying? but i have attached a couple of
screen shots of my systems idle ram usage i understand Removing
evolution completely is messy, but disabling is relatively
straightforward.
Of course this should have been done using dpkg divert and whatever, to
not confuse

i have found a possible fix or workaround to the problem!
i installed Ubuntu gnome 16.04 and to my surprise the ram usage was at
1.2gb idle and after just opening my browser and a youtube video it shot
up to about 2.3gb which was alarming to say the least, so not one to
give up i went in search
unfortunately for me, upgrading to kernel 4.7 didn't solve the issue.
Nor downgrading to kernels 3.13.10, 3.13.11 or 3.19.
