SUMMARY
akonadi_indexing_agent is consuming all available memory in only a few minutes
until system gets Out-Of-Memory.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
"akonadictl start" (if not already running)

OBSERVED RESULT
Watch akonadi_indexing_agent consume more and more gigabytes of memory in only
a few minutes (I have 16 GB installed) until your desktop comes to a crawl.
Wait for the Linux OOM manager to kick in or "killall akonadi_indexing_agent"
if you are still able to enter commands.

EXPECTED RESULT
On a similar system akonadi_indexing_agent statically consumes about 650 MB
RAM.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.6
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.107.0
Qt Version: 5.15.10

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Also seen on a similar system (Laptop) with a different user account.

Current workaround is "killall akonadi_indexing_agent" multiple times until the
agent gives up to restart.
