I'm not sure if this helps anyone, but I landed here after running out of RAM and swap space. I'm not using Evolution at all, but I am using Pidgin. The gang of three, made up by Pidgin, Notify-OSD, and Evolution- Data-Server, were eating all my RAM. Now, I see that Notify-OSD has been fixed in Karmic. I can blame myself for Pidgin's memory, since I use it for IRC without closing the windows for weeks in a row. The only thing left is explain EDS's memory usage without me using any Evolution.
When I boot the computer, and start Pidgin, EDS uses a bit less than 10 MB of RAM. When I ran out of memory, it was using 169 MB. I've been running my system for two weeks to a month (didn't check the uptime) without rebooting (just putting it to sleep) to get this.
