OK.

1) Close all konsole applications/windows.

2) Run Konsole with the only session. Observe top values in xterm: 
21668 birdie    20   0 73764  15m  11m S  0.0  0.8   0:00.33 konsole

3) cat big_file; open a new session; close `cat big_file` session; top:
21668 birdie    20   0  136m  80m  11m S  0.0  4.2   0:01.71 konsole

4) repeat 3)
21668 birdie    20   0  136m  80m  12m S  0.0  4.2   0:02.98 konsole 

Strange, opening and consequently closing *one* bash session, makes konsole
stay at the same RSS usage level.

* Let's check the case by opening by cat'ting a big file in two konsole
sessions:

21668 birdie    20   0  201m 144m  12m S  0.0  7.7   0:06.81 konsole

* And in three Konsole sessions:

21668 birdie    20   0  266m 209m  12m S  0.0 11.1   0:10.54 konsole

* And in four Konsole sessions:

21668 birdie    20   0  331m 274m  12m S  0.0 14.5   0:15.37 konsole 

So, unless there's "Undo close tab" feature in Konsole, there's a major memory
leak.
