[Bug 709314] [NEW] akonadi server leaks memory and consumes CPU until the OOM killer steps in

[Joseph Tate]

Public bug reported:

When I log in to KDE, the desktop starts to come up, but then it hangs.
If I switch to a text console and watch things with "top", I see several
akonadi instances competing for CPU and RAM.  Eventually the OOM killer
is invoked when akonadi has used up all the RAM and swap.

This started happening only in the last two days.  I had an unclean
shutdown, but fsck shows no errors.
