Public bug reported:
I have a rather big image database (18k+) and everytime I start Shotwell my
system (not too shabby) will nearly die.
That's because everything is transferred to Swap while Shotwell is loading and
until all this has unswapped the system is completely unusable.
The memory reserved during startup of Shotwell reaches 1.5GB if i remember well.
If it were a high-performance video-editor or something this might be
tolerable, but it is but a photo manager.
During normal use it reserves 0.5GB of memory which isn't too good but
acceptable.
Running Ubuntu 12.10, latest Shotwell 0.13.0
