Public bug reported: After two weeks, tracker-extract had an RSS of 0.5GB. I rebooted the system and logged back in. tracker-extract started working, and had soon consumed 1GB. It stopped extracting after a few minutes ("tracker daemon -w" shows no further activity) but keeps sitting at around 1GB resident.
