Thanks Patrick.

Updated Quicksilver and the Safari plugin, then restarted QS.  Enabled the 
Safari plugin and memory usage was at 10GB and climbing a minute later.  
Deactivated Safari plugin, restarted QS and memory issue went away.

Looks like TimLawson submitted Github issue 3052 last month on this already?
