Still having this issue with Ubuntu 17.10.
Disabled the option to Show clock in the menu bar and it still causes the issue.
Iǜe also set the time manually instead of Automatically from the internet and it has no effect.
Does anyone have a workaround?

Title:
  indicator-datetime uses excessive memory

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in indicator-datetime package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On my Aquaris 4.5, OTA-13, indicator-datetime
  15.10+15.04.20160820.1-0ubuntu1, it uses too much RSS. A typical RSS
  is 315892, almost three times as much as unity8.

  I believe this is an OTA regression. I'm not sure if it regressed from
  OTA-11 or OTA-12.

  Just now, I got caught in an oom killer loop with constant killing of
  unity8-dash because of this, making my phone unusable. I had to kill
  indicator-datetime manually. It then restarted automatically and now
  uses 80456 RSS only. I see bug 1633319 exists complaining about a
  memory leak. It's not exactly the same version since mine is
  15.10+15.04.20160820.1-0ubuntu1 and that one is
  15.10+16.10.20160820.1-0ubuntu1. But perhaps the upstream versions are
  the same or something? Perhaps the two are dupes, but I'll let someone
  more familiar make that determination.

  I have only a handful of alarms (perhaps five on average; rarely more)
  but I do have my Google calendar syncing with perhaps hundreds of
  events. However, there's no reason that this should cause indicator-
  datetime to use more RSS; it shouldn't be keeping these in memory.
