htop checks (10 minutes delta)

Hi,
plasmashell memory usage, increase infinitely in case of slideshow selected as background. The process memory usage, grows of about 1.5 GB in 10 minutes! After a while the system become unusable. At every image change, the log of the process show 2 lines like this:

No metadata file in the package, expected it at: "/path/to/images/directory/"
No metadata file in the package, expected it at: "/path/to/images/directory/"

In attachment two screnshot of "htop".
