Public bug reported:

I upgraded from Karmic to Natty dev a few days ago, and since then I
have massive memory consuption problems with KDE 4.6.1.

kded4 growse huge after only a few hours of KDE usage and causes lots of
swapping.

My system has 2 GB of physical RAM and 2 GB swap, and yesterday nearly
all of the swap and most of the RAM was used, kded4 taking about 1,6 GB
all by itself, according to top (which is not *that* precise, I know,
but it's an indicator.)

kded's RSS was about 170 MB, so most of its virtual memory must have
been paged out - dead, leaked memory? - or not actually been occupied.

Is this a known problem, or is there any way to determine for what
reason kded allocates that much memory?
