(Get the code!)
So what I have found so far and the steps I have performed.
1) Start the music app
2) Switch back to the dash and lock the phone
3) run the following command
$ watch grep -e VmSize: -e VmRSS: /proc/`pidof qmlscene`/status
4) After observing the VmRSS over a period of time I have noticed that every ~5 minutes the memory increases in size by around 260 kB. Below is two outputs to show the difference.
Every 2.0s: grep -e VmSize: -e VmRSS: /proc/2508/status Sat Mar 8 19:11:37 2014
VmSize: 281240 kB
VmRSS: 65720 kB
Every 2.0s: grep -e VmSize: -e VmRSS: /proc/2508/status Sat Mar 8 19:44:06 2014
VmSize: 282264 kB
VmRSS: 66736 kB
Note that I have a small library of only 11 songs and that I haven't opened any other tabs. I'll see if having a higher starting memory changes the value of the memory increments, which could then explain how yours has become so high.
