Public bug reported:

I'm seeing with standalone Sezen that after running it, mem usage of the
zeitgeist-daemon process goes up from ~13MB to ~40MB, this is
understandable as when Sezen is starting, it does one big query where it
asks for everything grouped by most recent subjects and in my case this
returns ~11 thousand events, so the extra 30MB can be explained by
allocating memory for the DBus reply.

Still, my question is whether Zeitgeist should be at mercy of the
applications, where nothing prevents them from spiking the memory usage
of the core process. (I already saw a couple of times zeitgeist using
80-100MB of memory on my system). Perhaps there's a way to tell python
dbus to free its buffers?
