Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-center

Over time a number of Sofware Centre processes are observed sitting
there zombified. Each consumes 2% of my RAM (that's over 100M per
process). The worst I've seen is 46 processes running at once without a
single Software Centre window loaded on the machine.

killall software-center temporarily fixes the issue of it nomming up all
the RAM.

This is using maverick-proposed's 3.0.8 but I've noticed it in passing
on past versions too.
