I can see that at least in the source the problem is acknowledged and marked as
critical:
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdebase/apps/konsole/src/History.cpp?revision=863326&view=markup

But as it seems there are at least 2 issues to be solved here:
(1) memory consumption does not decrease after clearing the history, closing
the tab or changing the history type (memory leak!!!)

2. redundant way of storing the color per character; however that would be ok
if there was a way to free up that memory again

Is it possible that (1) is just a simple bug caused by a missing destructor,
missing delete or similar? If yes, fixing that would at least be a good
short-term solution.

Improving (2) is obviously more complicated.
