Hi Wilhelm,
the problem is I don't see this myself while using the same version of Ubuntu and the indicator.
If you have some time we can try to debug this.
First it would be interesting how fast the memory leak grows. If you enter the following command into a terminal, it will output the memory use every 60s: multiload` ; done
while sleep 60; do ps uh -p `pgrep -f indicator-
The memory use (virtual memory size) can be found in the 5th column. Could you post the output of the command above from a newly started session here?
