Thank you for the layman's summary. It was a *_very helpful_* summary.

This KDE session loaded 28 hours ago. These are my current stats:

If I continue to wait, the dbus-daemon RSS memory allocation will
continue to increase. The highest I have ever seen is ~2.6GB or about
66% of memory. By that point, the computer will be close to unusable.

At what point will it be useful for me to generate a massif.out report?
