When transfering files with kde-telepathy and link-local accounts the telepathy-salut process uses more and more ram with every initiated file transfer on the sender side. First the memory should at least be freed after the file transfer has finished. Second the file to be transfered shouldn't be copied into ram as a whole. Big files like movies cannot be transfered since they fill up your whole ram. There is a similar bug filed at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/telepathy-salut/+bug/574553 (though a little old)

There's probably a memory leak somewhere (either in Salut or libsoup) that means this doesn't occur. What version of libsoup are you using? The bug is probably that after sending a "chunk" of file content, it isn't freed. > Second the file to be transfered shouldn't be copied into ram as a whole. If my guess above is right, fixing the memory leak will solve this too.
Thanks for the quick reply! (In reply to comment #1) > What version of libsoup are you using? It says 2.38.1 .
Is this in both direction ?
(In reply to comment #3) > Is this in both direction ? I cannot tell because the other side cannot send me anything. (I don't see a request or anything like that.)
