My system with 8Gb of RAM started swapping. Then in yakuake I could no longer open new tabs because within it, Apparently, most of the memory was occupied by the 2 open tabs in yakuake.

Do you still have this issue w/ recent versions? The one thing to check is what type of history/scrollback you're using (fixed or unlimited).
I haven't encountered the bug in a while, but I haven't checked the size of the scrollback files. I use unlimited scrollback but I clear it with ctrl+shift+k when I want. I was encountering that I had big scrollback files even though i had cleared them.
