Ran valgrind on the indicator-datetime-service with the following
command trying to track down the origin of the issue.

The following command and parameters were used:
G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly  valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valgrind.log /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/indicator-datetime/indicator-datetime-service

Title:
  memory leak in indicator-datetime

Status in indicator-datetime package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrading from 16.04 to 16.10 on the System76 Serval WS
  indicator-datetime-service is consuming all the system memory from
  3.7GB up to 32 GB in 30 seconds. The system kills the indicator-
  datetime-service process and indicator-datetime-service restarts and
  memory consumption repeats until killed again. All swap memory is
  consumed in this pattern.
