Bug Description

gnome-software isn't open but is using 5.6 GiB of memory... See screenshot attached from System Monitor, I've ended the process (was getting a bit scary - using all my 2 GiB of swap and all my 8 GiB of RAM was all being used too) but if I can get appropriate logs from somewhere do tell me! :)
