Bug Description

Usually trackerd works well and efficiently, but at times trackerd causes a huge memory leak that caused 486Mb of my 1Gb of RAM to be lost, the first time this happened, the leak was 768Mb.

This does not happen regularly but when it does it has a very large potential to crash the entire system.

Can you recall what was happening when the leaks occur?

Were you for example deleting lots of files or moving stuff around?

I cant replicate these leaks so the more info you give me the more likely I will be able to plug them
