Title:
  upstart leaks memory in init and upstart-udev-bridge

Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  init and upstart-udev-bridge leak a lot of memory after starting a lot
  of containers.

  init's memory usage grows steadily and ends up using about 80% CPU
  when it's using ~250 MB of RAM. upstart-udev-bridge uses about 1 GB of
  RAM.

  The Ubuntu version is 12.04 with the lts trusty kernel. The system is
  fully updated as of today.

  expected behaviour:
  init's memory usage should remain stable, not grow over time
  upstart-udev-bridge should use less than 40 MB of RAM
