I have exactly the same problem as Patrick #7 but as I have 8 GB of memory our
knotify grows to about 6.7 GB!
OpenSUSE 12.1 Tumbleweed.
For me it is terminal - if I can get into text konsole and kill it everything
recovers.

You need to use both sessions - my wife who is the other user was away for
three days. I left her logged in - her knotify did not grow. But as she
returned and read some mails and browsed around a bit my knotify grew to 6.7GB.
And her X session become unresponsible.

Note: as Patrick describes it is the other knotify that grows!

Idea: Does knotify register for dnotify or something like that then a
compilation could cause lots of events.

Phonon backend: Gstreamer
