I have observed that kded4 and nepomukserver sometimes don't terminate after logging out of KDE. At the next login, I get another copy of each, and so they accumulate. It's so bad that I added a script to ~/.kde4/shutdown to "kill -9" them if they are still running 15 seconds after logging out. Both processes keep open file descriptors to ~/.xsession-errors, so they would indeed prevent /home from unmounting. -- Remy
