Public bug reported:

Every day of uptime, the amount of memory unity-panel-service has
reserved increases by ~80 MB.

After six days of uptime of this Desktop computer, I end up with:

VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
899184 495224 ?       Sl   Jun18  81:23 /usr/lib/unity/unity-panel-service

When I run strace on the process it turns out that it accesses
/etc/localtime as well as files below /usr/share/zoneinfo/ a lot
(multiple accesses per second). I should point out that I have several
places configured in indicator-datetime's world-clock feature, so this
may actually be a bug in indicator-datetime...

This may be related to bug #779185.
