plasmashell use every hour 2-4 GB RAM more

[WhiteAW]

Plasmashell grows every hour 2-4 GB RAM and fill the RAM and SWAP to the top. And slows the System substantially or let it freeze. To restart the process release the RAM but it starts again to grow.

Kubuntu 17.10
KDE-Plasma 5.10.5
Kernel 4.13.0-31-generic
64 Bit

(German)
Plasmashell wird pro Stunde um mehrere Gigabyte größer. Bis der RAM und Swap ausgelastet sind und machen dann das System übermäßig langsam. Neustart von plasmashell bringt den RAM wieder frei, doch kann der PC nicht langfristig (über Nacht) arbeiten.
