nm-applet consuming lots of ram

Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager

  PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
 5604 spotter 15 0 1203m 512m 10m S 0.0 25.3 1:53.40 nm-applet

25% of a 2GB laptop.

Reason is possibly because I have /etc/resolv.conf chattr'd +i due to Israeli dsl router dns being flakey (totally broken) And since I can't configure it, I just forced it to be not be updatable. Which I guess upsets nm-applet? But it shouldn't be consuming that much ram.
