Use the script in #16, it's an ugly solution, but it works.

Title:
PolicyKit high memory usage

New system, clean install. Linux Mint 17.2, 3.19-0-21 kernel. Same
problem, over 1G in less than 2 days. My older system will lock up
thrashing its swap space if I don't re-boot it every 3 days or so
(memory used 100% and swap 95-100% used).
Thanks, Jon.
?field.comment=New system, clean inst
Just to keep this alive and to add a new data point, I upgraded to the
3.19.0-21 kernel and after 6 days polkitd has grown to 1.4+G memory
usage. I don't think the kernel version has anything to do with the
problem. On the plus side, my WIFI connection has stabilized since the
upgrade.
Thx, Jon.

New screenshots from my system after 5+ days. polkitd is at 1.2G +. I
have daily screenshots also if they are needed. I have Firefox and
Thunderbird running always. I do find my WIFI connection becomes less
stable as polkitd gets larger.
