I've this with akonadi_mixedmaildir_resource. After I open a folder with 36000 mails the mem usage goes up to 1.2 GB (on x86_64).
This should be much better in the upcoming KDE 4.8, importing 240000 mails peaked at ~600MB. Once the import is done (in worst case after restarting the akonadi server), the memory usage is low (<60MB), even when accessing large folders.
