Ok, I did some tests...

1. When nautilus does NOT draw the desktop, memory use stays put at
around 20M and does not grow. This is without moving the extension
directory, so Dropbox and Kupfer could still be active.

2. If I move aside that extensions directory and restart nautilus, if it
is set to draw the desktop, the growing memory behavior continues...
again, even if the extensions are not in place.

I attached a valgrind dump that represents #2 state: with extensions
removed but desktop drawn. Given that without desktop drawn, the memory
use is normal, I didn't see a point in attaching another log. I hope
that's ok.
