What's the best way to track memory leaks when running the tracker
daemon?  I also found that there's some huge memory leaks when using the
tracker-tag cmd line tool.  I have a script that adds some random
keywords to 10 thousand indexed files using the "tracker-tag -a"
command, after executing the script, the trackerd process is consuming
some 400MB of memory, and I have to kill it.

Any recommendation on how to track down the leak?
