you should consider this problem CONFIRMED now:

i can confirm similar behaviour with plasma getting up to 500+X MB total
and at least 400 MB resident - i definitely feel it all the time since
the machine its running on has only some 1 GB of memory.
the base system is openSUSE 11.1 with the most recent updates.

the used machine is i686 - using a single cpu, single core + HT.


a quite similar report can be found there:

just came to the idea adding the version information of my machine:

#> plasma --version
Qt: 4.4.3
KDE: 4.1.3 (KDE 4.1.3) "release 4.11.1"
Plasma Workspace: 0.1-SUSE

Here I have quad core + 8GB of memory. I never close my computer.
I'm on linux gentoo 64Bits.
Qt: 4.7.1
KDE Development Platform: 4.5.3 (KDE 4.5.3)
Plasma Workspace: 0.3

Plasma can use 5GB after long time.
