*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1342123 ***

I found the correct Setting manager (the other one was for Unity8?) and
have tried to reproduce the behavior described by Jonathan.  Disabling
the "Evolution Data Server" entry for my calendar does not fix the
problem.  All 8G of memory and 8G of swap gets devoured in under 10
seconds.

I think that marking this a duplicate of bug #1342123 is a mistake for
two reasons:

1. bug #1342123 is a bug for mobile system (the corresponding bug for
the desktop is bug #1589605)

2. they are talking about rather modest amounts of memory usage like
100MB, not 16G.

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.
