Bug Description
Binary package hint: evolution
When evolution is left open it slowly eats the available memory (I have often seen >2GiB of memory usage by the evolution process ) and swap space. Sometimes it crashes all by itself, sometimes I have quit the program or kill the process. because the system comes to a craw because of the heavy swap usage.
Even if this is not a memory leak I still have the impression that evolution has a "rather big" memory footprint...
