(Get the code!)
I'm experiencing this issue as well (version 3.6.1 from the PPA). I'm using an ATI card with the proprietary binary drivers. Gnome shell starts at about 30M, and works up very slowly (I'm assuming some initialization is going on the background) and levels off. However, as soon as I hit the Activities for the first time, memory spikes up about 20M. Then each subsequent hit will jump it up a little over 1M for each hit. If I let it sit after these subsequent hits, the memory does not get released.
The worst I've seen mine consume was around 200M. But still, that's far from what it should be taking.
