Experiencing the same memory leak on Ubuntu MATE 16.10.
Memory usage went up to ~1GB after 3.5 hours today and was over 2GB yesterday after about 7-8 hours.

I have done very computational intensive work these last two days which drained the battery very quickly and I had to recharge often.
I never noticed this memory leak during the 14 months I've been using Ubuntu MATE on this laptop. So my best guess is that the leak is somehow caused by either the quick discharge, the frequent recharges, or both.
