OK so this is much worse than we thought.

I flashed my device to 227
# system-image-cli -i
current build number: 227
device name: mako
channel: devel-proposed
alias: trusty-proposed
last update: 2014-03-09 03:20:00
version version: 227
version ubuntu: 20140308
version device: 20140304

I then opened the clock app, kept it focused and ensured that the screen remained on by tapping the display at intervals. (So that the app isn't suspended).

This is then the memory stats of the clock app over a 5 minute duration.

Note: The music-app is unconfined so this is likely what is making the issue more apparent.
