Comment 2 for bug 1203276

It seems that cups-browsed has a memory leak letting it pick up more and more memory with the time and not releasing it. On a machine where cups-browsed is running for several days I also see cups-browsed occupying a high amount of memory. If I restart cups-browsed, it disappears from the top memory consumers.

So please restart cups-browsed ("sudo restart cups-browsed") as a quick workaround and observe whether memory consumption grows in the next days.
