I'm not running nepomukserver, but I'm definitely experiencing a massive dbus memory leak. Currently standing at 2.746g. This is after being up for 11 days, suspended at night, with several indicators running that seemed to be causing the majority of the dbus traffic while otherwise idle. Ubuntu 16.10, Xorg, Unity 7.
