Unfortunately, this bug has not been fixed by the latest KDE uploads
(4.6.2).
I know the virtual memory size is not really significant per se, but
look at it in relation to the swap usage... At the time this snapshot
was copied from "top", kmail and kopete were the only running "real" KDE
applications, in addition to several desktop plasmoids. (Analog clock,
xeyes, comic viewer, music title viewer, notes, char selector and
calendar.)
KDE 4.4 in Karmic used *much* less memory, it was much less swapping -
with such few applications like kmail and kopete it was hardly swapping
at all...
Mem: 2047252k total, 1539664k used, 507588k free, 29480k buffers
Swap: 1992024k total, 1382948k used, 609076k free, 769552k cached
