beagle memory usage

Setup: Fresh run of beagled with only the kmail backend. IndexInfo report about 13700 items i.e. mails and indexed attachments. Beagle version is post 0.2.16, so that includes the individual items in the archive attachments as well. I started beagled as exercise_the_dog, indexing finished within an hour and this is the state after indexing is over.
