Bug Description
Running utopic with the ubuntu-desktop-next metapackage installed I see that media-hub-server is crashing many times per second (bug 1321203). Whatever is actually causing that the session upstart daemon now consumes about 3GB of memory after running like that for about one day.

Is your disk full? Does the memory drop down when you run 'start re-exec'?
