I have a very similar problem.

Just made the jump step from Fedora 14 to 16, and now Kmail (4.7 from 4.4)
insists on Akonadi indexing all the mail, which it simply is not man enough to
do.  This was AFTER having to figure out that Kmail, having performed an
automated "migration" had failed to give Akonadi a path for the local mail
folders, and kept crashing out.

This machine has 2GB of RAM and 2GB of swap - Akonadi grows to use it all until
the the synchronising process trying to regrow the indexes
(/usr/bin/akonadi_mixedmaildir_resource --identifier
akonadi_mixedmaildir_resource_0) is assassinated by the kernel, leaving Kmail
without all of my organised mail folders from the last 5 years.  It's less than
useless - I have lost access to some very important historic messages, and I
cannot even read critical current work email...
